Where do you want to go next?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This question comes up many times...
I will be heading for the North Cape.
Through Finland, Norway and Sweden.
As I already had planned in 2018!
But this time not with a recumbent trike but with a recumbent quad!
Not because of the North Cape itself, I've already been there on my motorcycle,
because I like the landscape up there.
I specially like the area above the Arctic Circle, it reminds me of northern Canada & Alaska, and I feel really at home in that kind of environment!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm going to spend the winters in the south, but I don't know exactly where yet!
Maybe in Portugal, France, Greece, Turkey or ...
The plan is to spend about 2–3 years in Europe. Then I'll see if I can get the recumbent to Canada somehow.
I want to explore more of the north and of course the Yukon & Alaska again!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How long will your journey be?
I will be on the road for many years.
The end is open
I'm saying goodbye to Germany for good, and then I'm just going to travel!
But it all depends on how fit and healthy I stay!
I'm not the youngest anymore, but I hope that recumbent cycling and the constant exercise will keep me healthy for a long time to come...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When will you start?
That depends on my mother's care situation.
I've been caring for her and my brother since around 2018 and have been doing it very intensively for a few years now - it's a 24/7 job!
Unfortunately, my brother passed away on March 31, 2025. But peacefully in the presence of me and my mother at home!
Now I only have my mom left!
She will be 90 years old this August, and her dementia is progressing very quickly...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope there is still enough time to take care of the conversion of my recumbent, to find the right equipment and to work out the approximate tour with all the sights I would like to see along the way!
I will slowly start selling all my belongings until I only have what I can take on the recumbent, in my big recumbent box, because I won't need any more in the future...
