The roads I chose


I have planned my trip to as near the sea as possible,and google maps lets me choose roads I can go by bike on,so that very helpfull,and the places I planned to sleep are also very near sea,but I can all change of course,if anything happens,like being too tired to cycle the km I planned,or flat tire...anything like that,but everything can be modified on-route.

So,as promised:

Part 1 As You can see I didnt choose the coast road to Gibraltar,because there is a natural park,and it makes they road very inneficient,I will be sleeping in Arcos de la Frontera,then Gibraltar,and the other cities You can see,unless ofcourse I do less distance and have to improvise...Google maps doesn't let me do all the way in one go,so get ready for the rest(and btw maps are in polish,please dont kill me for this despicable amount of consonants together)
 Part 2 Finally finished Spain,and invading France(I hope they dont surrender to fast,jk)Also didnt choose the coasr form Lloret de Mar to Portbou because google didnt let me :/But hopefully HereWeGo on my phone will help me when I'll get to it...
 Part 3Whole rest of France,and right to Italian border(where You can already smell oregano and pizza)Its too small to see,but I couldnt get my route through Monaco(I WILL GO) bc AGAIN google doesnt have bike roads for them...wonder why,anyways,I will definitely be avoiding sleeping near Marseille,beacause it not a very safe city(personal experience)In generall I will try avoiding sleeping in big cities,just dont wanna risk waking up without my bike or stuff,but thats extreme precaution,since Spain,France&Italy are very safe and friendly countries,where people are really polite and helpfull.


Part 4 This definitely needs explaining,I will NOT cycle the coast of Italy,since my destination is Poland,and that would be SO MUCH extra distance...I can feel my butt hurt already.I lied when I said I havent planned Slovenia nor Croatia,I did,but I am still full of doubts about that part&posterior road to Poland...I really,really want to visit Mediolan,its my dream since I am quite interested in jewelry,decoration,and design in general,what better to visit,than european capital of fashion right?Also,I've noticed Italy has VERY little cycling routes,at least almost  none registered by google maps(seriously google get your s**t together) and they have famous Giro de Italia,so what the heck
So this are the rough aproximations of what my trip will be like,but I will definitely updated them when I figure out the ramaining bits.
Also while prepping I found a page which already does/did similar route,but much longer,and could be very helpfull if anyone ever plans similar cycling adventure Eurovelo8.
