This is an account of the adventures of Stephen (The Cat) Bennett and Gareth (GDaze) Dyer in Europe 2018.


This was our ‘once in a lifetime’ trip. We identified a few places that we would like to see around Europe and then tried to join them up with rivers – figuring that rivers would not flow up or down steep hills! In the end it was quite an ambitious itinerary. To complete it comfortably by bike, we would have had to add another 2-3 months. Mind you, any additional time would have strained our friendship even more!
