Distance: 118km
Total: 2332km
Tent wasn't as warm as couple past days, thanks to cover from bigger trees. This is first campsite where I've over eaten breakfast on, which was good start for the day not needing to worry about breakfast. It was becoming another hot day, though leaving early before 9 actually made first couple hours pleasant.
Found the eurovelo again in Gyor, which has baroque era centrum. After a while wind picked up on fields, which were everywhere as the terrain had become totally flat. It was headwind that made progress slower but on other hand cooled the ride a bit.
Had quite some florints as cash and I was closing the Slovakian border, so few kilometers before border picked restaurant and went in; waitress didn't speak word of English and menus were in German. Picked something as expensive as possible to get rest of florints gone (costed whole 1590 florints!), and managed to get a lot chicken along with potatoes and salad.
Kept cycling the eurovelo which been pretty good today and suddenly noticed that all signs are in Slovakian again, must have crossed the border somewhere. Whole Slovakian part of eurovelo was in great shape, even getting trough Bratislava was really easy even though going right next to centrum.
3rd country today was Austria, and it was indeed different; info panels and road signs everywhere, too bad the route became also rather hard to follow with about 5 turns for every kilometer. Also on Austrian side the huge damage to crops from the floods and buildings became obvious as the riverside was one huge rebuilding/clean up area. Found campsite after bit of searching, and its tiny with full of cyclist tents, mostly by Czech cycling party. Again no Wi-Fi though :/. Tomorrow deeper into Austria and out of my current map...
