Milano. End stop. I'm calling it quits.
Heavy storms are coming to Italy, starting this afternoon and after having towed myself over the alps in heatwave conditions, I won't oblige myself to continue the rest of the journey in stormy and rainy conditions. The heat has taken a lot of energy and as this trip was more about the journey, than about the destination, I'm happy about how it has finally turned out. And to qoute @woutvanaert 's words: "ik moet just niks!".
I'll be happy to return home and prepare for @bespoked.cc in Dresden, which is only in 6 weeks.
Cheers to all. Peace. Out.

Last sunday was new bike day for @anatool84. He finally got to ride the bike he had been dreaming about for such a long time.
Happy riding, Arnout! Enjoy the looong roads ahead.

Balance .. that's what an alpas is about. Balance

Balance .. that's what an alpas is about. Balance in design and lines. Balance between old and new. Balance between performance and comfort. Balance between blending in and standing out. Balance between simplicity and integration. Balance between you and your bike. Balance ... It's at the heart of cycling.

What a beautiful tour this is. If you're looking for an entry level bikepacking tour, the pirinexus sure is one to concider. Very doable, very beautiful, lots of nice little stops for coffee or to buy food. And a very diverse landscape. Loving it!
