Strasbourg has amazing cycling infrastructure with separated bike lanes across the city and beyond. As a foreigner, the challenge is to work out how to get on them and stay on them. Eventually I made it to the tow path beside the canal and that took me all the way to Colmar. Not very interesting cycling but very safe and flat! A couple of sketchy bits with large rocks that required walking but apart from that, a relatively easy ride.
I was in Colmar in 2012 and I think it has changed substantially. The first thing I noticed was massive tour groups with leaders walking through the old town, up to 20+ people per group! There seemed much more commercialism this time round but I guess that’s to be expected. It was all very strange. In any case, I enjoyed my brief visit.
Very pretty
