Yet another day of celebration of hitting 13,000 km on my MC 1.0 VDO cyclometer.But still short of 2k km to reach my targeted 15k km. I doubt if it is possible even if I continue riding after Paris to London. If not for that truck hopping from Saritash to Osh in Kyrgyzstan due to bad gravel road , a car hopping from the Karakul Pass downhill to Bishkek due to broken rim and a train ride from Aralsk to Atyrau in Kazakhstan due to expiring visa, 15k km might be achievable. But all these were unexpected and unforseen even if you are an expert planner especially over such a long adventure trip. Highlight for today's ride was able to ride on a scenic country road from Rottengurg to Horb a. Neckar where many of the German road cyclists have their regular training rides. Very happy indeed to avoid the annoyounce bike lanes.Perhaps the only good of going into the bike lanes is pretty easy to spot a campsite,just like this one here..

Brater Meng,
Yes, we fully agreed that we can only planned but the outcome may not be what we wanted. Anyway, it is a very great achievement based on what we have been following for the past 6 months. This is "Fantastic". TTK is always very supportive of your Journey and is awaiting your return soon.
Congratulation Meng!!!!
200 days 13k-km on the recumbent – Fantastic! you should get an entry in the Guiness Book of records. By the time you read this you will probably be in France already and then it’s only about 360km to Paris.
Too bad that I could not help you to navigate through Augsburg to the B10. You actually went right past my home and also my workplace in Zusmarshausen.
Very best of luck for the rest of your tour with no more rain, smooth roads and hopefully no more trouble with crazy Policemen.
