In a million years I would have never committed myself to riding 90km in a day, fully loaded. I am so proud right now, and slightly drunk from the two Radlers with dinner. Brent always says one thing about cycle touring is that it makes you a cheap drunk. Yay for cycle touring! And yay for riding 90km!!
We cycled from Aschaffenburg to Bettingen today and the two “towns of interest along the way were Miltenberg and Wertheim. They were both awesome, but Miltenberg was particularly awesome. We started off in the drizzle at Aschaffenburg, but it stopped raining almost as soon as we started riding, so even though we had clouds, it didn’t really rain on us. We just enjoyed the cooler temperatures until mid-afternoon when the sun came back with a vengeance. If we do another long day like this tomorrow we can make it all the way to Wurzburg in four days instead of my allotted 5, which, as impressive as it would be, is rather unlikely. Brent and Laura could likely pull it off, but I’m not so sure about myself.
