The bicycles are checked by De Vakantiefietser so they are ready for the bumpy backroads of Iceland.
We also bought some waterproof stuff:
waterproof socks and waterproof gloves by Sealskinz.
11 Juli 2011
We've made a succesful cyclingtrip in Iceland. We were very afraid of the bad weather but of the total of 14 days we only had 4 days of rain. A pleasant surprise were the campgrounds. Many had a kitchen or a room were you could sit.
The video we made of this trip can be watched here.
Press F11 (=makes screen full frame) before watching the pictures. Use the left/right arrow keys to navigate.
