Well, today's accommodation is the most interesting, and I think the best yet. We are staying in an army base in Ede, The Netherland. After a 55 km ride from Utrecht, we arrived at the army base where I arranged accommodation for us thanks to my friend Rene, to find an entire building at our disposal. We are staying in army barracks complete with army lockers and narrow beds in neat, military rows. There is enough room to store our bikes inside and there are clean washrooms and towels. We are hardly roughing it here! What a great way to end a long day of riding.
Tomorrow, the real riding begins with our first 90 km day...
Hope you all sleep well. Wake up is at 4:45am. Bikes and cycling shoes are to be polish and ready for inspection at 6:00. Ready to ride at 6:15. i
ReplyDeleteShani Scores!! I am actually surprised that they let foreign civilians onto the base. Hope you don't find out you have enlisted. :o)
ReplyDeleteYour trip sounds amazing so far ziggers, I'm watching with vaguely concealed envy and glee! Autumn
ReplyDeleteGlad to see the visit with my Aunt was as awesome as I expected. She already wrote to say thank you for the granola bars. Bummer about her bike though. Anywho, can't wait to see what other interesting places you get to stay in!
