European Bicycle Tour Map: Cycling to Athens
European bicycle tour, cycling from Bognor Regis, England, to Athens, Greece, in the Autumn of 2013. The map shows where Garry spent each night of his 2000-mile bike ride to Athens.
Garry had spent the past year working, trying to catch up after taking the previous year off to cycle around the world! It was now September, and Garry was suffering from a bad back. As a way of curing his recurring back pain, he decided to go on a bike ride. After all, whenever he’d been in pain in the past, a good bike ride had always cured it. In fact, Garry’s hurt was so great that he only decided to go away the night before leaving.
