Planning ahead is generally a good idea...


This evening we are staying at a b&b for cyclists using Euro Velo. There is wifi here and we decided to do a little research on where we are planning to go in the next few weeks. Our plan was to meet up with Mom, bike south through Slovakia and then to Budapest. That plan would've been nice if we had been here a few months earlier. As we recently checked the weather for the mountain range we would be riding through, it is pretty obvious that we will be rethinking our route. The weather may change but we know that we won't be there for another two weeks. Generally speaking, it will probably get colder than what it already is. We have clothes and gear for cold weather, but at some point it gets less enjoyable to be biking in the cold and camping in weather below freezing. We experienced a little cold weather in Finland, although that was only about -3 degrees Celsius at night. The weather ahead looks like it would be colder than that, and during the day. My dad is currently looking at different routes we could take and if we will end up going to Budapest at all. The plan after Budapest is that we are going to fly to somewhere in southern India and bike there for a couple of months. It might end up that we fly there a little earlier than we thought but everything is still in the planning process. I will update the blog when I can with our plans for the next few weeks and where we will be going. It has been getting a bit more rainy and Poland and it seems as though the cold weather of winter is creeping up on us as we approach the month of November. It is really similar to the weather in Calgary as they are at about the same latitude. I brought out my travel guitar this evening and it was nice to play as I haven't played it in a while. We will continue with the plan to bike to Krakow but after that we still have yet to decide.
