Cycling trip - day 3
Today was mostly riding trains down to the Austrian border, to Linday. I slept maybe an hour on the EC from Hamburg to Mannheim train, then took a local connection to Heidelburg, then another EC to Ulm. Slept maybe 30 minutes on this one and almost managed to miss my stop 😅. Another regional train later I was in Lindau. Unfortunately an hour later than planned due to all the trains running late. Though that also meant I didn't lose my EC connection.
It became apparent quite quickly the train journeys the south were totally worth the hassle. The view from Lindau old town harbour is fantastic, over the Lake Constance (Bodensee) into mountains of Austria. Unfortunately I didn't have much time since the camping site I chose on the Austrian side had a reception closing time of 8pm. So a quick ride around the old town later I head out towards the camping site, unaware of when I even crossed the border.
Quick camp setup and then into town for some food, beforing crashing onto the sleeping mat to catch up on some sleep. Seecamping Bregenz is a decent place with clean sanitary facilities and lots of space. Paid 20 or so for a night with a tent.
Both Lindau and Bregenz seem to be very cyclist friendly town, and there are a lot of people riding around. A lot of them probably also tourists. Not a lot of riding for me today due to spending the day on the trains.
Distance cycled: 23.71km (today), 133.51km (total)
