78 of J just packed up just walking out of the camp I’m heading to a little town called soul I think s o l I’ve booked a hotel because all my batteries all my battery packs are almost flat and I need to charge it’s a bit cool this morning it

Was 10 over night but by Tuesday it’ll be a top of 30 here so it’s about to warm Up once again I’m on a great little cycle way it seems like you can put a route into Kut anywhere in the elps and it’ll put you on a cycle way it’s unreal it’s so good so I’m off the Euro 7 now I created this route just to get me back

To my route that I created at home to get to jbak and then inbrook where I have to go back over the elps again to get to the dollar mes You got to love this I just remembered I didn’t fill up my water bottles at camp and look at this in the nice park just runs 24/7 Happy Days He Well this is a bonus I thought I was out of the high mountains now with snow but there’s still more Mountains to the North I’m Ling this I can’t stop Smiling It’s some sort of bark break Festival I don’t know big Shimano tent set up here a lot of mountain bikes with numbers going past me all the time the other way and I met a guy from the UK that I think he worked for gcn cycling

Network on YouTube and he asked me if I was here for a festival or here for the something I said no I didn’t even know about it lunchtime avocado and Nutella is so good it tastes amazing in keeping with the tradition I have a horrible headwind for the next 50K N I really wasn’t expecting much out of this ride today and it’s turned out to be spectacular it’s like the way been great the gravel’s great it’s smooth pretty quiet it’s not heaps of people now now that all the mountain bike race guys they finished 15 20K back

It’s just been great to create this route I just went into Kimo and I went the starting point as fos which is the first town basically the first town after you go over the gloss blockner paths and then the end point is genack and this is the route K created and it’s

Fantastic this is such a happy accident this route I’ll actually join up today back onto my original route between salsburg and jenbach in a town called St Johan Tero or something and yeah that’s where I get back onto my original route that Town’s probably 15K Away Well I’ve just gone through St Johan Johan in tooll so I’m back on my original route all right I’m in sa found a spa grocery store go and get some lunch for tomorrow and then find my hotel well made it my hotel is just behind me over

There I’m about 15 minutes early checkin it’s not till 4: but that was a great day I got my hotel room it’s still pretty light it’s like 8:30 doesn’t get dark until like4 to 10 or something so I’ve got everything on charge it’s only a small room but um it’s only €

71 and it’ll do me as long as I can charge everything and get a good night sleep and I did a bit of a wash all good 18th of june4 8 just pulled out of the hotel I forgot that there was a complimentary breakfast so I’ve had a

Massive bowl of cereal and two bananas in my room and then went down and had two pieces of toast egg fruit coffee so I’ve had massive breakfast so I’m heading to inbrook which is about 80 80 K and I think there’s a top of 27 at genack that’s about 500 M elevation it’s

A bit lower than This A A Lunchtime and I’m sticking with the winning combo abocado and Nutella it’s wicked I was now in the province of troll which is known for its stunning Alpine scenery and winter sport its capital inbrook has been home to three Winter Olympics and is also famed for Imperial architecture including the

Golden roof Troll’s cultural heritage is reflected in traditional festivals and Hearty Cuisine the Region’s Beauty with Peaks like zuk spits and its Rich history make troll our year- round destination for nature lovers and history Buffs well I’m finally set up and I’m about to start cooking I went to the

Grocery store that I thought was going to be where I would get my dinner and breakfast and lunch for tomorrow and it was a vending machine so I had to ride another 8K into the center of inbrook and get my groceries there and then I put in the nearest campsite and it was

Vols which is another town about 6 or 7 more K past inbrook and it’s €28 and I asked him if they got any Coca-Cola he said no we don’t have any I said $28 and you don’t have anything I said this is a record this is the most expensive Campsite in Europe so

Far and it is but I went down the road and found Coke at a restaurant and I’m having burgers for breakfast because they had no cereal that’ll be Different okay route notes this route was just fantastic especially from zalam SE where I camped around to yanak here just unreal highly recommend this I originally started the route from fos in here to to ybak but I end up going a bit further after the gross loock glockner

And camping here and just a heads up this is where I went to the vending machine and I was originally going to Camp here camping Hall in Troll and I went up to this what I thought was going to be a convenience store and it was a vending machine and I

Couldn’t find anything else I don’t know if it was a Sunday but I couldn’t find anything open and I end up riding into inbrook and then by the time I rode it all the way in there it was easier to just go up to vs and yeah expensive I wouldn’t recommend

Vs um but the pl on the plus side I’d already gone through inbrook and it was easy to come back down here the next day to go up to head over back into Italy I didn’t have to go through inbrook so it worked out all right
