    Solo cycling the world – a subjective guide for women

    by Ewcyna 24 July 2018
    written by Ewcyna
    Nice meeting on the way, Japan, Hokkaido

    Although in my life I met not that many, compared to men at least, podróżujących w pojedynkę na rowerze kobiet, to z wieloma jestem w kontakcie no i wiem, even thanks to WOW – Women on wheels, that there are many of us in Poland and in the world.

    06/2022
    2021
    We arrange online chats with cycling travelers. We connect from different places in the world – recently the Netherlands, Germany, Mexico, Switzerland, Spain, Great Britain and Poland. These are women with extraordinary travel achievements – have been on all continents.

    Update 2020

    Cycling alone is not and hasn't been for me, the act of desperation or any extraordinary courage – simply, I like to be my own rudder and ship, I've been able to manage on my own all my life and that's how it is on the road. I am aware, however, that for many females espacially the beginnings might be difficult – and – although I have been traveling by bike since 12 years of age – For me, in many ways, they were too.

    Because many women, ask me what it's like to travel alone, or ask others and has doubts, does not know how to go about it, I thought, that I would write about my experiences and share “tips” – like about dealing with pushy men, accommodation, sleeping wild, bike repairs.

    Although rarely, Sometimes I also travel in company. Laos

    Pushy men – how to cope with. Don't you get “"special" proposals”?

    I'm sorry gentlemen, that you are going to the first fire.. life.

    Well, Of course, that I am afraid of this type of meeting and that I get such offers. I have no miracle prescription for eliminating such situations, but there are ways, to largely avoid them.

    the most important thing is do not provoke with clothes, appearance and behavior. Adapt your clothes to generally accepted rules in the country you visit (which, of course, does not mean putting on local costumes). It really helps and inspires respect. In Europe it may be less visible, but in many countries tight-fitting cycling clothing or bare shoulders and shorts can be perceived wrongly – as an encouragement, and the woman as “no impressions”. In Southeast Asia, I would feel extremely bad with bare shoulders – women cover the body fairly well – a tanned body is unpopular there.

    In Muslim countries, the rules are obviously more restrictive (even if the country is considered to be open to newcomers and their customs) arms and legs must be covered at least to the knee, preferably whole. In Turkey, to which many of us go, other rules apply on the liberal, the coast full of tourists, and others in the conservative interior. I put on long pants in Oman, I didn't take them off almost at all throughout the Middle East, Caucasus and Turkey (December – September next year). Shorts, Despite the hot weather, they were lying in a pannier – it was better that way.

    Armenia by bike
    In Armenia, the heat was terrible, but fortunately water stops are frequent

    I do not know if that's the case, but only once, When I put on the shirt “uncovered arms”, and it was as if there was no country, where there are hundreds of tourists , i.e. A Thai boy came to me, barely a teenager and offered to hug me in the bushes. I sent him to hell and I didn't wear the shirt anymore.

    In Iran, women's dress codes are restrictive, I try to subordinate myself to them somehow, Although I definitely stood out from the crowd
    • do not accept invitations to drink alcohol together (somewhere along the way, men only), I strongly discourage you. During more than 3,5 month-long stay in the Caucasus, I never once drank home made alcohol that is so popular there., that is “"cha-cha"”, that I was offered. Ale wino czasem sobie kupowałam i owszem 🙂
    Farmer, który mi pozwolił rozbić namiot u siebie w Azerbejdżanie wyjął taką butelkę do śniadania 🙂

    – And although it sounds strange, but … keep your distance and even dose smiles sometimes. I have talked to fellow solo travelers about it many times – yes, it is also read as an encouragement. What to do, after all, a smile is necessary everywhere, but here you have to rely on your own sense.

    What, however, if such a proposal is received?

    Make it clear, that you are not interested. Threaten to call the police. In addition, there is a fairly common belief in further corners of the world / outside Europe, that a woman from Europe is a woman “Liberated”, who wants to have sex at any time of the day or night and no matter who he does it with. In Kyrgyzstan, a Kyrgyz rider rode up to me on horseback and talked “How is my sex life going”. In the second sentence. In Armenia I used a lift and a nice driver, Halfway there, he boasted about his family and grandchildren before offering a hug “because no one would see”. In Greece, this is how a truck driver treated me.

    Has anything bad happened to me despite taking precautions? Yep, worst case is Sexual assault in Iran sexual (Read the post if you want to know the details).. Twice. I ended up in Iranian court. Unfortunately Iran,  which is considered to be extremely friendly to foreigners, This is not a country for solo female cycling travelers. A woman on a bicycle is a different category there. My friends also had trouble there. Smaller, type of groping, catcalling as well as very serious ones.

    In addition, I had a very unpleasant situation in my native Bieszczady Mountains, about which I wrote below.

    2. How to organize your "good night's sleep", mainly “wild camping”? Main – rules

    In terms of accommodation, we have many options available.

    • standard or camping, hostel, hotel or agrotourism (depends on which part of the world we are in).

    Here, of course, I use common booking sites as booking.com, AirBnB, I often search on google maps in the area, where am I (In the last moment), sometimes on the official websites of the tourist information.

    However, I do not like to sleep at campsites in high season and choose it as a last resort. Sometimes I buy a day stay, (then I take a bath, piorę, I'm loading the equipment), or just a shower and I'm going “into the bushes”.

    • Someone – for example,. “per host” or through portals, e.g.. Warmshowers / Coachsurfing etc.

    You can even try to sleep “per host”, or ask for the opportunity to spread a tent on someone's yard / field / meadow. If this is someone you should ask area! In Europe, it is unlikely to be a problem, but in Asia. There is often simply no place “under the tent”. I rarely do that. I do not like too much to ask, This first, besides, it is also not a guarantee of peace – sometime in Poland (Formula) I slept in the agritourism area and at night my host and friends came to my tent, after the party, they had fun walking around my tent and shining flashlights and I was thinking, I would die of fear. No, thank you, I'd rather hide somewhere, where no one will know about me.

    Ostatnio często stosuję “wiating”. Croatia
    South Korea, overnight with a view of the rice field
    • noclegi na dziko
    Poranek w Kirgistanie.

    This is my favorite way, but for many years it frightened me and it was an insurmountable obstacle for me. Yes, I slept in this way more than once, but always in the company of. Kilak years ago when going solo I spread a tent somewhere on the Bug, even though it was close to a farm, half the night I was shaking with fear and listening to the approaching dangers. Teraz wkładam zatyczki do uszu 🙂

    United Arab Emirates

    Before embarking on a trip to Asia, I passed through “course sleeping in the wild” with a newly met friend on the road – I just asked a cyclist I didn't know, whom I met somewhere on the road before dark, to let me crash wild with him and sell the patents. He was not at all pleased :), but we rode together for over a week and I learned a lot. I was going on a long and long journey to another continent / continents, but I didn't feel like sleeping in the wild. Now I see it as a fairy tale, but it was so.

    But most important is, to się ukryć. Winnice w Chinach.

    To sum up – Agree with someone experienced in the subject and choose to go somewhere together for a small live training :).

    The main rule is – show yourself, ask people to put your tent (you sleep somewhere, because you ask someone for permission and you are there officially) or just hide. In practice, the best:

    – is to look for a place yourself, for example,. entering side roads, Don't ask people about it
    – not to be noticed (Which is not always possible, of course). You can choose your spot in advance, but putting up a tent as late in the day, or as it is already. “dusk”. Turn off the lights (yes, Sight gets used to and sees). Select a place like the least visible – although many times I set up in the middle of the field as there was nowhere – then in the morning you can be seen and you need to pack faster. After setting up the tent, arrange the. necessary things in specific places and do not use a flashlight. Czytanie odkładamy do rana 🙂
    – and yet: have somewhere in sight, say 1 km some farm. A bigger road – If necessary, you can go there (but you can't get too close either, dogs because they smell and they will bark…)

    It happened to me several times, that someone appeared near the already chosen spot and saw me – In this case, most often in 95% I packed and searched (unfortunately, because usually I'm tired and it's late) next. You never know what will come to your mind and whether they will not want to visit us alone or with friends at night.

    Beautiful morning in Kazakhstan. After packing, I did not want to move… There are no bushes there, But there was a small hill

    It all sounds like a survival school, but it really is not so bad. Można się przyzwyczaić 🙂

    Na polach namiotowych tez nie zawsze jest najbezpieczniej. National Park in Thailand

    I would add, that the issue of sleeping in the wild and safety Varies by region. While traveling in Asia, I felt much safer than in Europe and also take it easy as never – at times, that I slept in plain sight, on playgrounds etc. in Japan or South Korea it's absolutely no problem. I liked to hide more, so that I no one “did not enter the tent”. I have a theory, that Asian (Far East)  the sense of security has to do with religion (Buddhism) and this, that there do not drink either so do not drink alcohol. Alcohol changes people a lot and this is already potentially dangerous.

    3. Logistics on the go – how to deal with everything by yourself?

    If you can't do it yourself, ask for help, although… it's hard for me, bo nie lubię prosić 🙂 Wiadomo, Coming from someone's safer and easier, However, because the person may be at the luggage while the other goes to the store, etc..

    Bicycle – in larger towns I always fasten before entering the store, in cities I also close the rear wheel lock. In the villages rather nothing of the above, there everyone knows each other. When I want to visit something, I am already looking for a place, where someone is and can take a look at (Pinned) - my bike. In other cases, related to such. with carrying luggage at the train station or from/to the train, most often I also hide the honor in my pocket and ask someone for help if someone does not offer to offer himself before. Only once have I been denied.

    4. How do you deal with bike repairs?

    washing the bike on the route
    In Georgia I spent the night somewhere in the vineyards and after the rain the ground was so clay, that on 150 meters both wheels are clogged. I had to take them off and wash everything. Well enough, there was a gas station nearby.

    Remark, note! I CAN'T DO IT. Shame to admit, I know. I know how to patch and replace the inner tube, adjust something.. I guess all. However, this is not the reason, da which would cancel the trip, I have traveled a large part of the world. You can always grab the opportunity and come to some bicycle magician (I mean I hope, that always ..).

    A friend, I was in the Philippines with a puncture. She didn't even have the right tools, to replace, But as it turned out, nie było to potrzebne 🙂

    Women's solo cycling journey – podsumowanie i przesłanie

    A woman traveling alone most often arouses in others concern and not the desire to harm. However, use common sense and don't underestimate the fact, that you are a woman. It really makes a difference, the further away from Europe, the more.

    If you feel, that cycling is something for you is worth a try. Go somewhere for the day, two and if you like it more. The main thing is to take the first step.

Feel like cycling the Italian seacoast? let me till Feel like cycling the Italian seacoast?
Let me take you to Riviera dei Fiori in Liguria - the Ciclabile dei Fiori is pure magic!.
This beautiful 27-kilometer cycle path overlooking the sea was built on an old railway track - it connects San Lorenzo al Mare and Ospedaletti, just by the French border, breathing new life into the historic railway route between Imperia and Ventimiglia.
There’s something incredibly calming about riding along a quiet, peaceful trail, with the sound of the sea on one side and the mountains on the other. No distractions—just you, the open road, and the warm Mediterranean breeze.
It's one of 2 real longer seacoast cycleways in Italy, know the other one?

I would like the world to always look like it does I would like the world to always look like it does after the rain. It would have clear contours and vivid colors, maybe a cloud or two in the blue sky for decoration. A light breeze would cool my face, and my body would not have to pour out excess sweat. But this paradise, when it comes, usually ends around noon, when the clouds, collected from the humidity, slowly gather over the horizon and you are again gasping for air like a fish, sweat is pouring into your underwear. Then it's time to stop for a siesta.

I've spent 1,5 months in northern Italy this year, making loops and coming back.. saw just road bikers and ebike cyclists so my luggage, which as you know is my home, was a reason for some to stop me and chat.

What 's the most beautiful cycling route in Italy? The Lunga via delle Dolomiti – Great Dolomite Trail, without a doubt! 
It is one of the most rewarding two-wheeled crossings of the entire Alpine arc: you pedal surrounded by some of the peaks recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites. The itinerary follows the route of the railway built during the First World War and decommissioned in the 60ies. 
Come after the rain for the best views!

The #Valsugana cycle path between #Trentino and Ve The #Valsugana cycle path between #Trentino and Veneto provinces was one of my favorites when cycling Italy this year. I came back there twice. It connects Lake Caldonazzo with Bassano del Grappa - it's mostly separated from traffic, 80 km long ciclovia along Brenta river, which originates right here from the lakes of Levico and Caldonazzo and then flows into the Venice lagoon after 175 km. It has always been an important communication route from the mountains to the sea, the Adriatic, the Via Claudia Augusta Altinate, a place of passage and meeting between the Germanic and Latin peoples. It forms one branch of #viaclaudiaaugusta cycle path. You can get there easily by local train but beware - the path is blocked close to Cismon by fallen rocks and the best way to pass is yes, taking a train. 
Due to great quality you can just speed up but the best is to stop and enjoy the small towns you pass by - like #Bassano del Grappa or #Valstagna. The views in the valley are breathing.

This year I've spent 5 months exploring Italy by b This year I've spent 5 months exploring Italy by bicycle. Not bad, huh? Cycled partly or fully more than 30 routes in most provinces. It's hard to say which one I've enjoyed most.. definitely though the rule that it's the hills or mountains that do the job in the landscape (while you do the job pushing) applies everywhere. It was my first time in the Dolomites and the beauty around was breathtaking. 
While putting together the information from this journey I will be posting now here on Instagram some pictures.. tbc

When I thought nothing can beat Sicily (joke) I'm in When I thought nothing can beat Sicily (joke) I directed my two wheels to the Calabria mountains. I've had it in mind for a long time but attempted with a lot of worry if I manage to cycle (and push through) at least a bit of 545 km Calabria Parks Cycle Route - Calabria Parks Cycle Route that crosses 4 national parks on top of the hills. The reason is - I love nature and silence and even though the coast is spectacular, you share road with many cars. Not my thing at all. 
But The Parks Cycle Path is difficult. Requires lots of effort. More than 12000 metres of climbing but yes, descending too. Oh man!! 
But you know what.. I don't need to be quick. Most days I've cycled like 40 km a day. I've done some detours and completed some 70-80 % of the length - jeez, I don't remember when I pushed that hard. Rewarded with serene forests, plains, meadows, silence though. Great people that are both surprised and happy to see a foreigner in their villages. 
Met very few cyclists but maybe not a season yet. All of them bikepack, I have been the only one (very) fully loaded. Maybe the first Polish cyclist here? 
Today I will (most probably) cycle down to the coast but already planning detouring Inland of Italian boot when following north. That's when authenticity is.

..Want to spend a pleasant relaxing day, enjoying ..Want to spend a pleasant relaxing day, enjoying the peace and beauty that the landscapes of Western Sicily offer? the Marsala cycle path is what you are looking for!..
That's how the typical commercial would start but in this case I would second that. It wasn't even marked on my app (shame mapy.cz) so came with a surprise when I was cycling along the coast from Marsala to Trapani in western Sicily. The Stagnone cycle path is about 8 km long, but as it crosses the evocative landscape of the saline with its windmills, to multicolored tanks and the pretty islands of the Stagnone lagoon is to me one of the most beautiful cycling itineraries in Italy. And in April it was absolutely quiet. If it was a bit later in a year I would add a nice bath in the shallow water of lagoon having tens of flying kite's in view. Go there, especially at sunset!

Guess where was I the previous weekend?!! Yes! Guess where was I the previous weekend?!!  Yes!  - in Bologna, at the CYCLING TOURISM fair, i.e. Fiera del Cicloturismo!

I came there (flew) looking for Italian cycling inspirations, but also the desire to meet people who have a similar passion, take advantage of workshops and lectures.  I was very tempted to come here - for myself, but also for you. I don't know if I told you that I want to spend the next few weeks traveling around Italy to create a knowledge base about bicycle routes in this beautiful country?  So I say 🙃.

By a thousand coincidences I managed to get there and then I got lost seeing the endless options.. I've seen a lot in Italy, I've ridden many routes and beyond, but I didn't expect to see - on paper and virtually - such an offer for two-wheel travel enthusiasts.  Each region has several, a dozen, several dozen bicycle routes, of which I want to select the most important ones.  I also acquired some practical information  that will be useful to Poles.

Companies producing bicycles and organizing trips, as well as representatives of several foreign destinations, unfortunately without Poland, were also present at the fair.  What's more, probably the most important thing - lots of workshops on every topic you need, lectures, prizes - including separate prizes for women. 

See at least a little of it in the photos.  I would love to have a similar event in Poland!
Cycle tourism fair - thank you for a great event.  It was worth it!
My bicycle and luggage was waiting for me near Marsala in Sicily, from where I went to traverse the island, but more about what happened earlier and later in the next episodes - usually on Ewcyna Facebook though.
