For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.

Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

The bike looks like it will fall apart in few km, the guy told me right now that he wants to ride on it another 100km tomorrow.

It doesn't look like this time I will convince him that it is bad idea. Me and my friend wants to leave them and ride about 150km home after we visit Vienna tomorrow (it will probably be easy day).

And the 150 km isn't insane we will climb about 200m and it is asphalt.
