An unforgettable bicycle journey. From the cobblestone streets of Cologne to the sunlit squares of Barcelona, Across Europe captures the raw beauty, unexpected encounters, and inner reflections of a solo ride across the continent. More than a travelogue — this is a story of connection. Landscapes, cultures, and everyday life intertwine in a narrative that moves between the physical road and the thoughts it inspires. Every town, border, and horizon becomes part of a larger conversation about freedom, distance, and what it means to truly arrive. A vivid, honest chronicle. Told with sharp observation and lyrical detail, this book invites you to experience Europe from the saddle — to feel the weight of the climbs, the rush of the descents, and the quiet moments in between. Whether you're a cyclist, a traveler, or simply someone who loves a good journey, Across Europe: Cycling from Cologne to Barcelona will take you there — and perhaps even further.
