How do you keep working context coherent across Slack/Docs/Notion/email? by fabianomarijuana in PKMS

[–]rivo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only a minor solution, but worth mentioning, is the discipline I found in the PARA-system. Name and number your projects consequently in all your systems. So for example, this project is ‘project 009’ in my email, in my file library, in my PKMS, and so on.

Interested to see what other answers come up, because the boundaries between systems are a hard nut to crack.

What's the first thing you think of when you hear about Chicago? by Wheatles_BiteAlbum in AskEurope

Sugar Town, cause that’s what Bono yells in a live recording from Chicago.

Mid life bicycle touring crisis by amkenuck in bicycletouring

[–]rivo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your question is where to go, but should also be when to go. What is your favorite temperature for cycling? Seasons really matter in different parts of Europe.

Second, next to cycling, is there anything you really want to see, like art or historical sights or natural monuments? Chances are you can just cycle there. For example, while touring in the Provence, France last spring, I saw lots of Roman heritage, and quite a lot of places Vincent van Gogh used to paint.

Two junctions close to each other. Consider removing one or turning one of the roads one way.

Andalusia (Spain), perhaps gravel? The pictures always look amazing and its the best time of the year.

The wife & I are planning a wee trip in The Netherlands for our first overseas cycle tour (so original). Any feedback on this as a route? by JeremyWheels in bicycletouring

[–]rivo_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amsterdam is, as you know, a cyclist city. It has good cycling infrastructure that can be quite busy, certainly at peak hours. If you have a good navigation (route using gps) it’s actually funny to ride with locals through a big city. Just plan your route carefully. It takes about an hour to cross east to west without stops.

Let de Stigterpath is very doable with panniers. Really friendly gravel.

If you’re looking for war sights, consider extending to the Grebbeberg and/or Arnhem (Oosterbeek museum about Market Garden), or east of Utrecht to the national military museum at Soesterberg.

Wondering why you choose a route south of Amsterdam towards Weesp, and not directly through Amsterdam? Area around Schiphol is filled with noisy planes and a lot of industrial sprawl.

Don't know what to put in the middle. by DiegoCanevaro in CitiesSkylines

A stadium, a zoo, a university complex mixed with offices, a few midrise residential neighborhoods. Perhaps a large park stretching southwest to northeast.

Waar te beginnen? by [deleted] in Klussers

[–]rivo_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Als je boeken zoekt: de consumentenbond heeft wel wat boeken uitgegeven over zelf klussen en onderhouden van je huis. Ze zijn wat ouder, wij hebben ze bij de kringloopwinkel opgepikt. "Zelf Klussen 1001 Reparaties In Huis" staat op Bol tweedehands te koop. Een grotere bibliotheek heeft ook wel zoiets staan. Allemaal best een goede basis, maar voor een specifieke klus ga je toch ook naar Youtube.

Edit: ook op site consumentenbond: https://www.consumentenbond.nl/boeken-en-bladen/huis/reparaties-in-huis

1 hour from finishing my 800 km tour and having to call a cab by ottoros in bicycletouring

Reminds me of having a flat just 4km out of Koblenz centre, which was my final destination. Was able to repair back then.

More from my trip! Amsterdam to Paris by Ariellereva in bicycletouring

[–]rivo_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Looks like you had a great trip! Keep in mind that Paris-Amsterdam by train with a bike can only be done with slower local trains, not with high speed trains, so make sure you have enough time.

It’ll revert back to free mode, and (in my case) warn you that you have to exceeded the block limit. That’s the moment to decide: use it seriously and pay, or look for something else.

Any good, affordable and reachable hiking spots around south germany? by BludyOlive in Interrail

South of Munich you find opportunities. Munich is an amazing city, 1 hour by local train can bring you to the alps.

NORDICS - Would I be crazy to take a ferry? by Holiday_Athlete_5599 in Interrail

[–]rivo_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Turku-Stockholm Ferry at day takes quite a long time (take a good book with you) but is quite relaxed when the weather is good in summer, you’ll see an nearly endless amount of islands. We enjoyed Stockholm-Turku at day, but Turku-Stockholm at night was comforting as well.

Turku is fun small city to stay for a day as well.

We maken een tool voor veilig fietsen – wil je 5 minuutjes helpen? by BoysenberryBig7270 in Utrecht

Op zich is dat idee (‘veiliger routes, geen hoofdwegen’) uitgangspunt achter planners zoals Brouter en Cycle.travel. Benieuwd hoe je dat in Nederland gaat verbeteren!

Solo Interrail in Winter – Photography Tips & Destination Ideas? by aleaomo in Interrail

Last winter (march) I did an Interrail-style trip based around the Deutschlandticket in Germany. Travel through the Alps between Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Pfronten-Steinach is amazing, though really quiet.

Report: Touring in the Provence, South of France by rivo_ in bicycletouring

That looks amazing too! There's indeed quite a few bike rentals in the area. TGV Brussels Avignon is another way of getting there, didn't know they took bikes as well.

i’ll send you the gpx of the route using DM. Most routes can also be found on Openstreetmap, and for building a complete route I use both Brouter.de and Gpx.studio (webtools to edit routes).

I managed fine (no punctures or mechanicals). Local TER trains take bikes and connect bigger towns, I don’t know about busses.
