Magical World

Cycling is our passion! It’s not only a challenge as cyclists have little protection against cars and trucks, weather condition or road states, but definitely also a very rewarding experience, allowing to see the world through different eyes! Touring on a bicycle allows our human nature to be in direct contact with our surrounding environments, to have the time to appreciate it, to feel it and to experience it.

In this section we will tell you some of our nicest experiences on two wheels! At the moment have been touring with our bicycle the following countries or regions in the world (6200 km so far):

America (South)

• Patagonia: both Chilean and Argentine in 2,5 months, 3500 km

Europe

• Norway: from Oslo to Bergen via the great fjords in 2,5 weeks, 900 km

Oceania

• New Zealand: the South island in a bit more than a month, 1800 km

This is our cycling travel blog.

This travel blog is all about cycling. As with a diary, the latest blog article (the one on top) is the most recent one. You can find below the links to the latest posts:
