Rotterdam - Stuttgart off the beaten path (mostly)

Impromptu bike trip to visit friends in Stuttgart after they invited us just three weeks earlier via Skype. Route was made in a hurry and adjusted on the go but worked out better than expected. We tried to avoid big cities as much as possible and looked for nature instead. Sticking to Germany's so called Forst- and Landwirtschaftwegen (forest and agricultural roads closed for motorized traffic) worked amazingly well. Also used some pre existing cyclotourism routes to help get started. In the end the route contained WAY more unpaved roads (and punctures) than expected, which made the trip even more adventurous. Might need to make this a yearly tradition.
