I<\/em><\/strong>ntro: in the summer of 2023 I did a 1.614 km (1.000 miles) long biketour in Denmark and a bit of Sweden. I wanted to ride on a couple of old railroad-tracks, now converted into bike trails. <\/strong>
It took me 19 days in the sadle and it was a great adventure !<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday 19th of July 2023<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After a lovely day at the summer house near Stege, I continued my journey at 9 AM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was great to take a shower, do some laundry, and recharge my powerbank etc. There was also a cherry tree in the garden, providing me with plenty of delicious cherries. That was quite nice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I decided to shave off my beard as it was starting to look terrible –  couldn\u2019t trim it since I didn\u2019t have a trimmer with me on the trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started by cycling a little over 10 km east to reach M\u00f8ns Klint\u2014one of the major landmarks of my journey. I can definitely say my legs got a serious workout on the hills leading up to the cliffs. But I finally made it to the parking lot at GeoCenter M\u00f8ns Klint, which is a science center. I picked up a fridge magnet and climbed a lot of stairs (though I didn\u2019t go down to the beach) to take in the stunning view of the chalk cliffs and the sea. I took a lot of pictures. I was surprised to see sailboats relaxing quite close to the cliffs\u2014it must be an incredible sight from down there. I recorded a video while walking near the cliffs, but unfortunately, the camera angle was off. Oh well, it happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, I rode west to the town of Stege and then crossed the Dronning Alexandrines Bro over Ulvsund, also known as M\u00f8n Bridge or Denmark\u2019s Most Beautiful Bridge. I had finally reached Zealand! From there, I continued northwest toward my destination for the day: Pr\u00e6st\u00f8.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But suddenly, while taking a turn on a small asphalt road, I heard a loud \u201cPfffffffffffffff\u201d – no way\u2026 I had another flat tire on the rear wheel. This time, it was a large tear of a few millimeters, which isn\u2019t ideal for continuing riding with. Luckily, I had a spare tube with me, so I had to get to work on the roadside and change it. It took me over an hour\u2014I had a really hard time getting the last bit of the tire back onto the rim because of the metal wire inside it. It probably didn\u2019t help that I only had one tire lever, and it was made of metal. So now my rim has a few cosmetic scratches – but I didn\u2019t care at all, I just wanted to get that damn thing fixed  haha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eventually, I managed to fix the wheel completely and made my way to Pr\u00e6st\u00f8, though I took the main road, which I normally avoid. It was shorter, and there weren\u2019t as many stones. I wasn\u2019t thrilled about riding on that torn tire without any more spare tubes. However, I later realized that the tear wasn\u2019t actually dangerous to ride on. In fact, I\u2019m still riding with it over a year later without any problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I arrived in Pr\u00e6st\u00f8, I visited a bike shop where I bought two new tubes and some nice plastic tire levers, which shouldn\u2019t damage my rim. I felt smart and well-prepared now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a shelter site northwest of Pr\u00e6st\u00f8, I set up my tent a bit away from the main shelter area. There were two guys around my age staying in one of the shelters, and they had 4\u20135 little kids playing around the site. They had brought a full camping setup with them. They offered me homemade campfire pizza, which tasted amazing, and we had a long and enjoyable conversation. Later, they also made popcorn over the fire and shared it with me. They were great company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dag 13 – Onsdag d. 19. Juli 2023.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Efter en dejlig dag i sommerhuset nede ved Stege, tog jeg videre kl 9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Det var l\u00e6kkert at f\u00e5 et bad, f\u00e5 vasket t\u00f8j og opladt min powerbank mm. Der var ogs\u00e5 et kirseb\u00e6rtr\u00e6 i haven, det forsynede mig med masser af dejlige kirseb\u00e6r. Det var ret l\u00e6kkert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeg valgte at barbere sk\u00e6gget af da det var ved at se herrens ud – jeg kunne ikke trimme det da jeg ikke har en trimmer med p\u00e5 turen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeg startede med at cykle de lidt over 10 km \u00f8st p\u00e5, for at komme op til M\u00f8ns Klint. Et af mine helt store pejlem\u00e6rker p\u00e5 turen. Jeg skal lige love for at mine ben kom p\u00e5 overarbejde p\u00e5 bakkerne op til klinten. Men jeg kom da til sidst helt op til parkeringspladsen ved GeoCenter M\u00f8ns Klint, der er s\u00e5dan et science center. Fik lige k\u00f8bt en k\u00f8leskabsmagnet. Jeg fik g\u00e5et op af en masse trapper (var ikke nede p\u00e5 stranden) og fik set den flotte udsigt af kalkklipperne og havet. Jeg fik taget en del billeder. Det overraskede mig at se sejlb\u00e5de der l\u00e5 og hyggede sig ret t\u00e6t p\u00e5 klipperne. Det m\u00e5 sikkert v\u00e6re et flot syn dernede fra. Jeg fik optaget en video hvor jeg g\u00e5r t\u00e6t p\u00e5 klipperne, desv\u00e6rre var kameravinklen forkert, men s\u00e5dan kan det jo g\u00e5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeg k\u00f8rte derefter vest til Stege by og videre over til Dronning Alexandrines Bro over Ulvsund, ogs\u00e5 kaldet M\u00f8nbroen eller Danmarks Smukkeste Bro. Nu var jeg endelig n\u00e5et til Sj\u00e6lland. Jeg k\u00f8rte videre nordvest p\u00e5 til dagens destination: Pr\u00e6st\u00f8, men lige pludselig mens jeg var i et sving p\u00e5 en lille asfaltvej sagde det \u201cPfffffffffffffff\u201d – sig det var l\u00f8gn, jeg havde d\u00e6lme f\u00e5et en ny punktering p\u00e5 baghjulet. Denne gang var det en stor fl\u00e6nge p\u00e5 et par mm, hvilket ikke er ideelt at k\u00f8re videre p\u00e5. Men jeg havde heldigvis en extra slange p\u00e5 mig, s\u00e5 jeg m\u00e5tte jo igang i vejkanten og skifte slangen. Det tog nok over en time, jeg havde godt nok store problemer med at f\u00e5 det sidste stykke d\u00e6k p\u00e5 f\u00e6lgen. Pga den metal wire der er i d\u00e6kket. Det hjalp nok heller ikke at jeg kun havde et d\u00e6kjern, af metal. S\u00e5 min f\u00e6lg har f\u00e5et nogle kosmetiske skader – men jeg var totalt ligeglad, det lort skulle bare fixes hehe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Det lykkedes til sidst at fixe hjulet helt og jeg fik k\u00f8rt til Pr\u00e6st\u00f8, dog via hovedvejen, som jeg normalt holder mig langt v\u00e6k fra, den var kortere og der er jo ikke s\u00e5 mange sten. Den fl\u00e6nge i d\u00e6kket var ikke s\u00e5 fed at k\u00f8re med n\u00e5r jeg ikke har flere slanger p\u00e5 mig. Det jeg senere fandt ud af var at den fl\u00e6nge ikke var farlig at k\u00f8re med. Den har jeg nu i skrivende stund k\u00f8rt med i over et \u00e5r uden problemer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Da jeg kom til Pr\u00e6st\u00f8 var jeg inde ved en cykelhandler, hvor jeg k\u00f8bte to nye slanger og nogle fine d\u00e6kjern af plastik, der netop ikke burde skade min f\u00e6lg. Jeg f\u00f8lte mig fornuftig og p\u00e5 den sikre side nu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Da jeg ankom til et shelter lidt nordvest fra Pr\u00e6st\u00f8 slog jeg mit telt op lidt derfra. Der var to fyre p\u00e5 min egen alder der havde det ene shelter og de havde 4-5 sm\u00e5 unger med som legede p\u00e5 pladsen. De havde det helt store setup med. Jeg blev budt p\u00e5 hjemmelavet b\u00e5l-pizza, som smagte herligt. jeg fik mig en god lang snak med dem. Senere b\u00f8d de ogs\u00e5 p\u00e5 popcorn der ligeledes var lavet p\u00e5 b\u00e5let. De var et herligt selskab.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
