How can I optimise my route selection?
Hello, I am planning my first long ride - from north Germany to Amsterdam.
I have a gravel bike and I am looking for a pretty easy and relaxed ride, no more than 50 km a day.
I have a route in mind, which I sketched in Ride With Gps using control points, I also included some camping places I saw on the map.
Looking at my route now, I am not sure - are these cycling paths selected by the app are good? might there be a better way to do this?
As it looks now, it doesn't seem like a very continuous, relaxed ride. If there is a comfortable cycling path, I would like to take it. but how would I know it is there?
I have only done 2-3 nights so far, so I could really use some guidance in the planning stage...
Thank you very much
