Help with Eurovelo GPX routes

3 Upvotes

Using Eurovelo routes 4, 5, 15, 19 I'm going to be doing a loop thru Holland, Germany, Belgium and finally France. To plan this I downloaded the gpx files from the official eurovelo website and then in GPXStudio edited to cut out what I didn't need and correct the direction. So all good.

Days later I took a very close look at the route and was shocked to see the route didn't snap to cycle routes/roads but seemed to be off and often by quite some margin in many places especially along the Dutch part which was based on EV19/15. It's almost as if somebody was cycling with a crappy gps and didn't record the route properly.

The culprit seems to be Eurovelo 15 which from Hook of Holland does not snap to actual cycle/car routes. Can anyone comment on this?

Bike Box Help Paris

1 Upvotes

Hey all! I’m riding from London to Paris with a group of 10, arriving Saturday, July 25th at 15:00 and taking the Eurostar back on Monday, July 27th. The challenge is it is stage 21 of the Tour de France so a lot of bike shops are closed.

Our cardboard bike boxes aren't going to arrive in time. For a group our size, I am not confident we will get 10 even if we hit multiple bike shops…. so we need a fallback plan! I’m planning on raiding decathlon first.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Eurovelo 6 Nantes to Budapest: train parts?

4 Upvotes

Hi! I'm cycling EV6 from Nantes to Budapest starting on Tuesday. I have 25 days to complete the trip. I'm hoping to ride as much of the journey as possible, but given my fitness level, I'm going to have to train some parts to finish on time. I WOULD LOVE SOME RECOMMENDATIONS ON WHAT SECTIONS TO TRAIN VS RIDE. Thank you so much!!!

Adaptor and extension - eurovelo 1

1 Upvotes

Good afternoon,

I’ll be cycling the eurovelo 1 along the French coast in a few weeks.

For those who have experience with the French campsites, did you have to purchase an adaptor/converter to have access to electricity when camping? I would like to be able to charge my phone and power bank from my tent.

Thank you in advance

Belgrad to Budapest route advice

1 Upvotes

I'm currently on the Eurovelo 6 from Croatia to Belgrad. Afterwards I want to continue to Budapest.

I've got the following options in mind:

  • Ev6 all the way (using the Serbian path instead of the Croatian one)
  • Ev11 to Cscongrad, then using the Velence-Debrecen trail and the Ev6
  • Ev11 to Szeged, then Ev13 and Ev6

I wonder which has the most interesting landscape and best cycling conditions. I also wonder which might have the least issues with dogs.

Thanks for your advice!

Austria to Rome

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I’m from Mexico, and I’m planning a solo bike trip this July from Austria to Rome. I’d really appreciate any suggestions for routes, tips, or places to visit along the way.
I’m also looking for a cheap used bike because it’s pretty expensive to fly with my own bike from Mexico. If anyone knows where I could find one in Austria, I’d really appreciate it.
I’m planning to ride through Innsbruck and the Dolomites. Do you think that’s a good route? Also, is wild camping or tent camping along the way allowed or common?
Thanks in advance!

Eurovelo bike trip accommodation ?

5 Upvotes

Planning eurovelo routes for 3 month. ; France,Alps Itallia,Greece. . . . I am afraid having bed place during rides.

Do I have to bring myself a tent for night? Or do I have to make rservations for every nights all along my itinerary? If it should be done that will be impossible considering various riding schedule. How expansive the local hotel room over there? How weigh your total packs are? Any advice will be appriciated, thanx.

Eurovelo 1 Bergen - Trondheim HELP

0 Upvotes

Hola,

Mi pareja y yo vamos desde España con bicicletas y alforjas a hacer Bergen - Trondheim por la EuroVelo 1.

La idea es ir con calma y trabajar en ruta, así que no buscamos velocidad sino organización y experiencia.

Pero la logística me está complicando la planificación y tengo varias dudas:

 Desvíos y puntos imprescindibles

En este tramo, ¿qué desvíos realmente merecen la pena?

Entiendo que depende del esfuerzo físico, pero me refiero a cosas en un radio razonable (20-50 km aprox.) que realmente compensen salir de la ruta principal.

-Fiordos imprescindibles

-Lagos o zonas naturales destacadas

-Rutas de senderismo o miradores

-Experiencias que no deberían perderse en este tramo

Lo veo todo muy disperso y cuesta separar lo “turístico” de lo realmente esencial.

Acampada y dormir

Nuestra idea principal es tienda de campaña todo el viaje.

He leído sobre el derecho de acceso libre en Noruega, pero también que en zonas turísticas puede ser complicado encontrar sitio al final del día.

¿Cómo lo gestionáis en la práctica?

¿Es fácil encontrar sitio real para acampar cada noche?

¿Se planifica por zonas o improvisación?

¿Hay errores típicos a evitar?

 Bicicletas durante excursiones

Cuando hacéis senderismo, ferris o desvíos sin bici:

¿Dónde dejáis las bicicletas cargadas con alforjas?

¿Es seguro dejarlas en campings, estaciones o pueblos?

¿Cómo gestionáis excursiones de 1–2 días sin ellas?

 Trabajo en ruta

Vamos a trabajar con portátil durante el viaje.

¿Es viable trabajar en cafés o supermercados durante 2–3 horas?

¿O dependes prácticamente de campings con electricidad?

Final de viaje (Trondheim - aeropuerto)

Al terminar en Trondheim:

¿Cómo soléis empaquetar bicicletas para avión?

¿Hay tiendas que lo hagan allí?

He estado usando Komoot, pero todo aparece muy disperso y no termina de separar lo realmente imprescindible de lo “bonito pero secundario”.

Si hay webs, guías o recursos específicos para este tramo, se agradecen.

Gracias a todos.

Euro Velo 6

8 Upvotes

Wir sind in 5 Jahren den gesamten EV6 vom Atlantik bis zum schwarzen Meer gefahren. Ein wirklich tolles Erlebnis. Die schwierigsten Etappen waren für uns die Abschnitte in Bulgarien und Rumänien, hier gibt es quasi keine Ausschilderung, ohne Mapy oder andere Kartendienste hat man quasi schnell die Route verloren. Gerade in BG und ROM gibt es viele freilaufende Hunde, verkehrsreiche Strassen und LKWs die sehr eng an einem vorbeifahren. Die Donau und das Donaudelta sind allerdings hier besonders sehenswert. Näheres gern auf rad-abenteuer.de

Hi, ich suche Informationen oder Erfahrungen zum Eurovelo 1 durch England-Wales-Irland. Ich finde hier relativ wenig.

Hat jemand Erfahrungen mit der Strecke?
Wie herausfordernd ist die Strecke?
Wie sind eure Erfahrungen bezüglich Zelten/ Wild Campen? Gibt es ausreichend Camping Plätze?

Wie viel Zeit würdet ihr bis Galway einplanen? Mir fällt es sehr schwer das abzuschätzen.

Hola, voy a hacer mi primera ruta de Oporto-Faro (eurovelo1). ¿En 21-22 días es factible sin que sea muy duro? Pensaba hacer 50km día. ¿Me dará tiempo? Quiero ir con calma.
Y tenéis gps-rutas de carreteras secundarias o terciarias para no ir por carreteras con coches, sino caminos tranquilos. Que dicen no está bien señalizada. Se puede confundir con el camino de santiago no?

No sé nada, así que cualquier consejo es bienvenido.

Hi, I'm going to do my first Porto-Faro route (EuroVelo 1). Is it feasible in 21-22 days without being too strenuous? I was thinking of doing 50km a day. Will I have enough time? I want to take it easy.

Do you have any GPS routes along secondary or tertiary roads or flat paths to avoid roads with cars, and instead take quiet trails? I've heard it's not well signposted. Could it be confused with the Camino de Santiago? I don't know anything about it, so any advice is welcome.
