Hello, I'm on my first bicycle tour, 10days in.
Coming from UK and final destination is Kraków. I've been fallowing EV2 trough Germany and I'm between Magdeburg and Lipsk right now.
Can't decide which route take now.
Option 1. Continue fallowing EV2 for Berlin and Polish border. This is easiest as it's mostly flat, but adds a lot of mileage.
Option 2. Just head east for Görlitz. Shortest distance to Polish border, climbing steady and possibly 1 big climb. Only issues it's not official route so riding on road with cars, and possible boring?
Option 3. Get onto EV7 heading south for Dresden, then go towards Hradec kralove and continue east
Already got about 800 kilometres in and I'm getting tired af. I was completely unprepared physically for this trip, yet still doing 80-90km daily on average.
I'm mostly tempted to see Czech Republic, but can I take those inclines? Has anyone done those routes? Any advice would be nice as well.

Can’t help with the route, but take 4 or 5 days off in a nice city (or nice town if you prefer). Eat LOTS. You’ll feel the difference when you start again.
