OverviewAbout this route

From home to the sea, that was the plan and we made it.

Untrained, three mountain bikes and a trailer. We aged 14, 16 and 41, female set off. In storm and rain. Constant headwind, thunderstorms and rain showers didn't make it easy for us.

We needed 5 daily stages. But the tour wasn't meant to be a race. The only goal was to arrive.

We spent the night twice at campgrounds. Once soaked and pretty worn out at a sports hotel and the last night in a camper cabin.

On the last day, we aimed to take the route to Vlissingen in one go. Along the dike and always following the routes of the very good Dutch cycling maps.

Just before Vlissingen, it became incredibly tiring. The headwind was intense. Low gear, head down, and always in the wind shadow, we arrived.

Vlissingen -- Sea..

The return was by car in just 2.5 hours.

Travelled from 07.07 to 11.07.2008
