    I think that means Cycling Vacation in Danish. Mine starts in three days and I will be signing off
    the list in a day or two. The Voyager is packed!!!

    This will be my first solo tour and though I have never been in Denmark, I will arrive to friends
    that were just a few months ago just names on this NG and the touring list that I frequent. So,
    though I travel solo, I will not be alone.

    My trip idea began last Fall when the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston exhibited the French
    Impressionism Masterpieces from Copenhagen´s Ordrupgaard Collection. Also included in that exhibit
    were some of the Danish Masters. The Danish works were most impressive. There was one in
    particular by L.A. Ring that was such a captivating landscape that I felt that I could just 'step
    into it' Better yet, if I were there on my bike I could Bike into it. At that moment, I decided to
    do just that!

    The first of L.A Ring's works was. "Motiv ved Melby, 1901" By this time next Monday, I will be
    cycling through Melby.

    Another was "Lundbyes bænk ved Arresø. Frederiksværk. 1899."

    This one also popped up on the website of Torben Scheel in a discussion of commute routes. It turns
    out that he lives only a few kilometres from the lake. I think he has found for me the location of
    Lundbye's Bench.

    My plan calls for a two week loop beginning and ending in Copenhagen and crossing all the major
    islands and the Jutland peninsula.

    Part of my trip will be along a 1000 year old road known as "The Military Road" (Haervejen)

    The rest of the trip near the coasts of Sjaeland, Funen, Lolland, Falster and Moen. In 11 days I
    expect to cover about 700 km (~450 mi) Thanks to Mikael Seierup for encoutaging me to tackle the
    island s of Funen, Lolland, and Falster.

    I envy you your trip. I'd probably have to stop by the Leitra plant, though, and I really can't
    afford one!

    No no, this is what you use if you want to get your bicycle across the river and there is no bridge.

    That's what I get for reading two message boards and a newsgroup at the same time...

    And the prize for the most gratuitous use of the word "Belgium" in a newsgroup message
    goes to Bryan.

    If you like stairs, ladders and heights don't miss climbing up Vor Frelsers Kirke [1]. It is also
    very loud inside when the bells are being rung.

    Mikael,

    It is bad enough that Bryan used it, did you have to repeat it?
