the idea
Visiting ACKspace by bike, just because we can
things to consider
- bicycle repair tools
- Spacenet access which travels with us
test runs
Some strategic distances:
- Herkenbosch-Heerlen is about 40 km.
- Weert-Heerlen is about 50km.
- Weert-Herkenbosch-Heerlen will be about 70km.
This are the test runs:
Xopr
- did a test run the 6th of july 2013 (it was actually to receive the prize of a bet which I won: Achel Trappist № 5)
cycled 72 kilometer and found out that the limit of an untrained person will be about 60km a day, so best practice is to keep the complete tour under this amount. - Repeated this in 2014 (no data)
- Went to Achel and Valkenswaard again and cycled about 75km without any hassle in an estimated 5 hours. Good position of the saddle is key.
Da Syntax
did a full run from Herkenbosch to Heerlen the 13th of july 2013. Great success! (xopr guesses)
did another test run on the 14th of july. First together with Xopr Heerlen-Weert. After a couple of beers in Weert i continued my journey Weert-Herkenbosch. This comes to a total of +/- 80km that day. So i (syntax) guess it should be possible for a untrained person to cycle 80km in a day (maybe beer functions as a good motivator).
when will the cycling be?
Some information on holidays
| Legend |
|---|
| School vacation (S) |
| School vacation (S) & Construction industry holidays (S) |
| Public holiday |
It will probably be a kind of 'branch' where we meet in the middle, do a little picknick, and carry on together to ACKspace.
