Eurovelo 15: The Rhine Cycle Route

The Rhine Cycle Route (or as it has been recently rebranded, the Eurovelo 15) has a sexy new website. Can a website be sexy? Actually, not going there… It’s worth a look (and you won’t feel obliged to delete your Internet browsing history after having been there…). The Eurovelo 5 – the one made famous by Good Vibrations: Crossing Europe on a Bike Called Reggie – follows the same route as the Rhine Cycle Route from Strasbourg to Basel before the latter heads in an easterly direction continuing along the route of the Rhine. Eurovelo 5 cuts straight across Switzerland along Swiss route 3 but both the Eurovelos 5 & 15 meet once more in Andermatt near the source of the Rhine. The portion of the Eurovelo 15 in Switzerland is also known as Swiss route 1! Just how would you survive without this website…?
