Hey all!

Departing next may, I plan to fly into London where I will start a 4 (or so) month visit in Europe.

I plan to follow the eurovelo routes from London up to the Netherlands, where my girlfriend is currently studying. After spending a while there I would like to hop on the euroroute R1 and cross Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia where I will ferry over to Helsinki and get back on the euroroute. From Helsinki I plan to head south to Denmark and eventually arriving back in the Netherlands.

I have been researching but unfortunately I can find very little information about euroroute r1 or even the eurovelo routes.

Has anyone experienced these routes first hand, or know where I can find detailed information and maps? How about cost of accommodations? Security in campsites by country?

I have never done a bike tour of this length before, but I have spend 4 months traveling in Europe, 5 months in south America, a month in Nicarauga, middle east, etc - so I do have some experience travelling.

Thanks or any information you can give me!

Cheers,

Jonathan
