En route to Cologne! A tiny bit strange to bike from your hometown to the next destination. But great to see areas you know roughly well through that lense. Even though I hardly know the vogelsberg, but the names I know well. Today no rain, only a bit of fog in the morning, that will change though.

I had a big plan. Simply going directly to cologne. 180km with quite some hills. Was excited about it, I could do it! Half an hour into the ride I was completely soaked, missed some signs, had to do some big detours and was actually done with the day. Like completely. Decided to bike to Siegen and take the train. The area was very beautiful though and I will return, when there’s better weather.

A day with mixed feelings. Going through Aachen, or touching the outskirts. Lived there for five years and really didn’t like it there. In the end I met great people, but that city… and Düren, man. My first landlord was from there. Terrible. Made it to Kelmis in Belgium though. Nice campsite, with chickens. But really could not understand the people in the local pub, even though they were speaking German. Oh, and it was great to have some days off in Cologne and meet my family.
