A winter road cycling adventure to end the year. Supporting Markus Stitz in his 5th ride home for Christmas. Oslo to Berlin was planned as a 1000km route over 3 and a half days, which is the routes in this Collections named Day 1 to Day 4. What we ended up riding are first 4 activities in this Collection.Conditions were not quite the crisp, clear, winter wonderland that we hoped for, so we progress was much slower than planned. Give up and go home or improvise and embrace the adventure? We rerouted from Gothenburg, so missing Denmark to arrive in Berlin for the markets and in time to be home for Christmas. A properly gritty ride which tested my Dura Ace Di2 group set in conditions that they probably weren’t designed for. Riding 34mm tires was the best grip I could get on my Argon18 road frame. Thanks also to Schwalbe, Komoot and Endura for support on this Shimano #WinterWarriors ride. Incredibly challenging riding, but great fun with a pal who has a similar sense of good humour and mischief when the going gets tough! This would be a stunning route to try in the summer, if you dance a warmer and drier ride!
Lunga distanza in questo freddo gelido, rispetto. 👍
