This is the first vlog of our Europe tour in Summer 2019. In this episode we hit the road from Elena's hometown Bremen and cycle south. We pass by cute little German villages & picturesque landscapes. This video features many castles and us cycling along the Rhine River. At the end we reach the German Alps where we continue our tour in Austria. Subscribe to our channel to not miss our second vlog where we cross the Austrian Alps.

When I lived in Berlin I worked 6 days per week 😓 so only made day trips around the area on a Sunday. I keep meaning to go back and do a cycle tour across Germany as it is a beautiful country, both scenery and architecture. And it has great cycling infrastructure. Thanks for this great video and reminder 🙂🚴‍♀️🏕👍

Hi Trend! Great that you liked the video. In Germany we loved cycling along the Rhine and Mosel rivers. It's a paradise for cyclist and there are so many cute little towns along the way. Rothenberg ob der Tauber in Bavaria was so beautiful as well. Like a medieval fairytale town! Looking at the entire Europe trip last year we loved Bosnia and Herzegovina. We loved the history and culture of the country and the ever changing untouched landscapes and the friendliest people. There is still a Video to come about cycling in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We also loved cycling in America, especially in the deserts in Utah and Death Valley in california. But unfortunately we didn't film that adventure. But you can see some pictures on our Instagram. Happy cycling 💙

Hello! You are very welcome. Artur did this effect on his iMac but I'm sure you can also do it on your iPad as long as you have the software called Motion. The way Artur did it is, he took a screenshot of an empty map and a map with the dots (with exact the same dimensions) . He was using Motion to blend in the second screenshot over the first using the following KZfaq tutorial: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oZ-jqcWHz6mpd58.html . I hope it helps! Good luck with the edit

You might want to try giving more of a narrative when you video tape these trips.

To be honest we didnt document the route too much if its about roads taken etc. When we planned the trip we picked the places and cities that we wanted to see and en route used Google Maps or Maps.me to get there. We have a rough outline in the beginning of the video of the route taken. I hope that helps! If you have question of specific parts of the trip let us know!

When you went to tourist places the the church in Cologne, where did you leave your bikes so that your stuff was not stolen? I have similar bags and I am always afraid that someone could come along and steal the whole thing even if my bicycle is locked to a pole,
@BetweenWheels
@BetweenWheels 3 жыл бұрын
Hi Amie, We always have the same issues/concerns and to be honest, I would never leave my bike with bags alone. I see many bike travelers do this and I always wonder how they are not afraid of theft. In the case of the Cologne Cathedral - we took turns - so one of us went insight while the other was looking after our stuff. Often when we went to see for example castles or other tourist attractions we ask at the till is we can leave our bags with them- sometimes there are even kind of luggage rooms where we can leave everything. Most of the time this works- however, it has also happened before that we had issues and missed out on a visit. For example with Schloss Neuschwanstein- we had issues leaving our stuff and decided against going into the castle. But thats the beauty with our kind of travel- you never know whats gonna happen or what to expect. I believe it would be also possible to call attractions in advance to see if they can accommodate storage but we never really do this. This way every day is a new surprise for us :)

Thanks! We are glad you enjoy the video. We love cycling too! Wild camping is not allowed in Germany, however there is always a way to do it cheap or for free. You could ask landowners to camp at their properties or ask locals for good spots to put up your tent. Also, if you are careful and hide well it's possible for free. If you are in a touristic are there will also be campgrounds that are much cheaper than hotels. However, we are not big fans of campgrounds. Let us know if you have any questions!

Didn't know there were snakes in Germany- Adders? We have then imbibe UK too on heathland.we get some real jerks toward cyclists here, not all, most drivers okay but some are dangerous but jobs. Have you ever had problems with drivers on your travels?
@BetweenWheels
@BetweenWheels 3 жыл бұрын
Yes we see quite many snakes all around Europe! Was surprised myself! Most of the times the drivers are careful but we get taken over many times way to close and too fast. The most annoying thing is if the cars or motorbikes on the opposite lane overtake a car in front of them and go on our lane. The worst traffic experience we had was in Hungary when a car overtook us and banged with the side mirror against the oncoming car, while driving more than 100 kmh. It was a big band and gave a fright to everybody. But we were happy that nobody got hurt!
