Swapvelo: Rotterdam-Monaco
I wanted to travel. But not too far. Only for a couple of weeks. But I also wanted a challenge. The question that came up: where could I go to when cycling 100km per day? Several cities popped up: Athens, Istanbul, Rome, Helsinki. In the end I decided to cycle to the Mediterranean. Monaco to be precise.
To make things more interesting and challenging I signed up for a Swapfiets subscription. Not one of the electric bicycles they have but one that we in The Netherlands call an oma fiets, a very basic bike without gears and hand breaks. It’s a bike you see everywhere. A bike that enables us to go from home to work and back, or to simply go for a ride.
My ride is from Rotterdam to Monaco.
