10.000 km on this bicycle! During our trip through Morocco I reached the mile stone of cycling 10.000 kilometers on this bike. I still remember buying it at the @devakantiefietser in Amsterdam, ready to take off on an epic adventure to China. I've
Just came back from the Sahara desert! We swapped our bicycles for a 4x4 and @lover_of_sahara drove us over 130 kilometers into the sandy dunes in the middle of the desert. It was not only our first time in the Sahara, but also our first time ridin
What a day! This morning we started off early to conquer the 32 km climb to Tizi n'Tichka. The climb was long and steady, but half way through Margot her bicycle chain broke.. at the best possible timing! We had just passed a small village where a
Ready for our next cycling adventure! We just arrived at Schiphol Airport and packed our bikes into boxes. Everything went much smoother than expected and now all that's left to do is to wait to catch our flight to MOROCCO!🇲🇦 3 weeks of holidays
Lovely weekend at Max and Martha’s wedding in Italy!
30 is the new 20, right?
Over €30.000,- for @diabetesfonds! Today is #worlddiabetesday. On this day a lot of people in the diabetes community try to raise awareness around diabetes. I also tried to do so last 6 or 7 months and it felt like the perfect day to hand over
It took me about 5 and a half months to make it to China and only 10 hours to fly back home. Turns out traveling by airplane is waaaayy quicker! Who would have thought?! Whilst sitting on the plane I flew over parts of the route I traveled by bicycl
CHINA! WE MADE IT!🇨🇳 Well, right until the border at least. This is as far as we can get. At this point in time there is no way you can get a Chinese visa so when we got stopped by the Kyrgyz border police that's where I had to end my adventure. G
Ak-Baital Pass - 4655m🏔 Reaching the top of the Ak-Baital Pass was definitely one of the highlights of the trip (literally!). This one was pretty tough, climbing the unpaved roads to the top, having less oxigen then we are used to because of the hi
There is a whole lot of nothing out here on the Pamir Highway so in order to find some shelter from the brutal winds we need to work with what we find along the way. But there IS something out here that has been on my mind for over 5 months now. Chin
We are currently cycling between the mountain peaks, right next to the Pyandz river, which marks the border with Tajikistan and Afghanistan. Everytime we look to the right, we see the Afghan kids playing in the river and farmers with their livestoc
WE DID IT!2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ Nope, I still did not make it all the way to China just yet but together with all of you we managed to reach the goal of raising €20.000,- that will go towards @diabetesfonds to be used for Type 1 Diabetes research.
From Amsterdam all the way to TAJIKISTAN!🇹🇯 This was only the first border control on my trip that was kind of sketchy.. It took us over an hour and we had our passports checked for about 6 times. At some point one officer even told us that the bo
I'm currently crossing the Kyzylkum Desert in Uzbekistan, which is the 15th largest desert in the world! With temperatures rising above 40 degrees and quite a bit of sand and dust blowing around it is sure to be a pretty epic adventure! That's why w
Time to get packing! All the surrounding borders with Georgia are either closed or will not take me more towards China. That’s why (out of necessity) I need to take a short flight to.... UZBEKISTAN! We will fly to the city of Nukus, which is
