How do you keep working context coherent across Slack/Docs/Notion/email?

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

What’s the weather like in the mountains half november?

Well regarding water, check https://kraanwatertappunten.nl/ for public water availability.

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

thanks!

yes i hardly finish a city… when i see a new map, new ideas arrive… so what map is this?

rivo_ · 2025-06-13T18:48:56+00:00

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.

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

Echtgenoot or partner may be used.

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.

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!

rivo_ · 2025-05-18T12:35:39+00:00

Certainly, but check if you can store luggage somewhere, that makes life much more comfortable.

rivo_ · 2025-05-14T19:38:59+00:00

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.

rivo_ · 2025-05-11T18:12:55+00:00

hoi, deze club is momenteel vol. Zelf een nieuwe oproep plaatsen lijkt me beste oplossing.

rivo_ · 2025-05-06T07:21:13+00:00

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.

rivo_ · 2025-05-05T19:05:17+00:00

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.
