Update April 25, 2024

Last year was excellent for cycling and hiking. I want to do more of the same in 2024.

Click PLAY or watch my 2023 hiking highlights on YouTube.

Normally I fly someplace sunny in January. Because CANADA. 🥶

But for the first time in perhaps a decade I’m staying local.

March 2024 I did my first trip. Down to Couer d’Alene, Idaho for the Great West Gym Fest, visiting friends on the way there and back.

Enjoyed my 4th year in a row downhill skiing and winter hiking in Banff.

UPDATE ➙ I land Edinburgh, Scotland on June 1st to begin my European adventures.

Free for the month of June, I’m considering:

• Greece, Meteora?
• Crete?
• Balkans: Croatia?
• Dolomites, Italy?

I left my bike and gear in Munich. Planning to pick it up around July 1st.

Summer 2024 I’m thinking to cycle the Rhine north starting early July ➙ Continue up to Denmark. ➙ Ferry to the Faroe Islands. ➙ And on to interior Iceland. Likely fly out of Reykjavík.

I’m booked July 27th to Aug 8th, 2024 for the Faroe Islands.

I’d start on parts of the Eurovela 15 – Rhine Cycle Route.

As the Deutschland Rail ticket is still next to free in 2024, I’d hop local trains as needed in Germany.

France may offer a similar inexpensive train pass in 2024, as well.

Likely I’ll be cycling solo. No problem.

Right now I’m considering flying back to Scotland late September.

And possibly Everest Base Camp in October.
