Both of us are students from Scotland. I fixed up 2 scrap bikes and then we made it all the way to the Polish border. Wanted to go further but ran out of time so we are finishing the trip on the train.

I was thinking this might be some slight optical illusion, with the helmet too.
What route did you take, in a broad sense (or not so broad)?
edit: Love your setups!
Started in the north West of Scotland (trying to not doxx myself too hard) went to see a friend near Edinburgh and stayed for a few days, then to York, via a town between Birmingham and London to visit my girlfriends parents (she was riding the red bike (a Specialised Hardrock)) then through London to Kent to see my parents. Then after a stay in the most run down hostel I have ever seen we crossed at Dover to Calais and then cycled up the coast to Brugge, then to Amsterdam, then to Hamburg and finally Szczecin. We had planned to go all the way to Warsaw but we have run out of time, wanted to get the train but they are all fully booked so are taking the flixbus instead.
Writing all this out makes me think about making a better post about our entire journey
Please make it, my write up on EV 13 didn’t attract much attention but it may help someone who will plan their trip. I think that people here like nice pictures with bikes more than text but still I and some other people like to read too.

I suspect that a lot of the picture upvotes may actually come from all. And yeah i guess your ev13 topic did not have a pic initially, not too many people seem to read later comments that are being added later. I mean it is a pretty small community here. Still really cool that it actually has some traffic, looking at how little activity the generalist cycling c’s get, you’d think this one should be completely dead.
Probably a good idea to start a new topic for a write up OP, for increased interaction. With at least a title picture ;)
When I wrote it I didn’t had sorted and downsized pictures, but for my future posts I will remember to pick at least one for title.
A better post? Write a book!
Sounds good! And yeah i would be down to read some more :)
