Schönau, Lower Austria, Austria
Almost there!
distance: 41.04km
duration: 4h 11min
There he is! The great adventurer - the glorious explorer of vast and unknown territories! Sitting in his expedition-grade tent in the Danube- floodplains between Orth and Hainburg, feeding on pasta, after having travelled wimpy 30km from his hometown. The goal of the day - reaching "somewhere after Bratislava" - not accomplished.
But the tour has just begun!
The fun begins right after Vienna. The cycleway was flooded knee-deep due to heavy rainfalls in the previous days.
Vienna-Bratislava - the most dull cyclepath in the world, 30km of straight road. But the wildlife is amazing, i've seen lots of insects, rabbits and a deer with huge antlers was crossing my path some 50m in front of me!
