Training Log Archive: LOST_Richard

Out from Torun, tried to follow a recommended route from the tourist office, great maps, basically only showed the roads we had to cycle on and none of the others. Also missing lots of village names, so when we took a wrong turn we had to guess which way.

Ended up at the lake that we had planned to ride to maybe an extra 5km but did see a stork nest up close, we had seen lots from the car but none close. Had a beer and pizza and found the correct route back to town.

Bottom can tell I have not ridden 50km for a while, will need to toughen up for the real touring in a couple of weeks.

Run in at an overnight stop in Kaunus Lithuania - nice town with lots of cafes and restaurants. Halibut was very good and sitting outside on a warm evening on the terrace was most enjoyable.

Did a lap of the town and maybe tried to run a bit hard in the middle and slowed for a while.

Note GPS got a bit confused after 2km mark, was an underpass of a freeway and somehow I ran across the river without a bridge!

Now in Torun Poland for a couple of nights before we move on to Silesia, long drive on slow roads.
