So I plan few trips for next season. First one in last week of July - get to
Vienna, around Danube to Linz and then back to CZ to small town Slavonice.
(About 600km I plan it for 7-9 days) Second to Hamburg - the farthest city with
direct train back home. (About 900 km I think it will take me about 14 days) Few
shorter trips and 10km every day to work… My brother said now something like
“C’mon next year you will have 5000 km on bike”
Yup, each way, so 50mi/80km total per day perhaps a little more since I’d be going on side paths instead of on the highway.
I used to go about that fast on my old 11mi/17km commute and finish in 30-45 min, depending on wind direction. So with some training, I could probably do my new commute in ~1.5hr each way. It’s not going to be a regular thing, just a goal I have. Maybe I’ll do it more regularly if I get an ebike, and I probably will if I like the route.
For the train route, it’s 3mi/5km to the stop, then 7mi/11km to my office. That’s pretty reasonable, and I’ll use that to train myself up to the full distance (e.g. skip a stop, then skip the train entirely). My office only has one bus that goes to it, and it’s awkward to get to. If I did transit only, it would take >2 hours (car is 30-40 min), so the bike is a time savings.
