Keywords: Bikepacking; Blog My friend Benni and I went on our first major Bikepacking trip back in 2022. After spending the past years in lockdowns due to Covid we were overjoyed to finally explore the world on our own. Since then a Bike-tour during the summer has become our thing to do.

This is when I layed my eyes on road cycling for the first time. 2024 was a short but fortunate as we meet some sailors who took us across the Dollard Channel to reach our final destination in Emden. This year is different. We are planning more time and new concept. We will spend multiple days at the same spot exploring the area on road bikes and then reaching a whole new destination by car.
