Vorarlberg - The Wild West

I promised some people to keep them updated on my solo adventures in the Wild West.
It is very idyllic here and although there is little to do the time is flying. I am finally reunified with my mountain-bike and I am using is on every possible occasion. The transportation of the bike and all the stuff I need was a bit tricky. That was the reason why I decided to bike the last 60 km through the beautiful Vorarlberg Alps and send whatever I could not carry. I admit there is a more developed route but distance and elevation difference would have been similar - so why not go for the beautiful one :)
The good thing is that distances were a lot further when I was a kid and nowadays even the trip from Langen am Arlberg to Bizau seamed like a short one.
I apologize for the bad picture quality - my phone is still my only camera.


From Langen am Arlberg up the Flexenpass

Finally up
Number two - and yes I was a lot lower in between...

Not really qualifying as a pass in this area it is still a long and steep way up.


Finally there - Bizau

Special thanks to Stefan :) for making this possible.
