Really good start to the day...follow the Rhine nice and flat but raining from the start..
More or less cycle paths all the way to Bregenz, on the way found that ive lost a screw that keeps my handlebars together, whatever next....pull over in a garage, 5 mins later back on track.
Today i make an executive decision, forget about Liechtenstein, its going out of my way and im not going to make my flight home. I never wanted to go there anyway, it was bri who said so, so its his fault.
They say all the rich live there, and i aint got no money. Yorkshire's probably bigger.. is it ?
To celebrate not going to to the Liechtenstein, and because it was still raining, i treat myself to my first sit down meal. I want Austrian so get 2 starters, a cheese dish and boiled sausages. Had good company on my table..swapping stories like you do and finished it off with apple strudel and cream (custard) and a cup of tea.
So of i go again, still some sort of daylight and the rain...(leje jak z cebra, przemoklem/am do suchej nitki) it keeps coming. Ok the climb from Bregenz to Oberrute was nie zabawny..i was climbing to heaven for 2/3 hours, it was like a river running down, dark again, brakes not good, but i had to go on. Arrived this time at hotel Krone. What did i look like cold, wet, tired and thirsty. Everything totally wet through..whats the point in calling something waterproof if it isn't. The girl that greated me, was so lovely to me (and totty to)..clothes were put in the boiler room...hot shower...german cup final (repeat). cheeky one zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
ps oh and like ive said my phone is Kaput..
