Trip Summary

After two extra days at Attersee, I finally decided to leave the Salzkammergut and cycle to Vienna, making good distances where possible. Starting in Steinbach am Attersee at about 8am in the morning, I arrived in Weissenkirchen near Wels at about 11:20 (about 74km from Steinbach). Without much delay, I continued further and arrived near Linz at about 1pm (a bit above 100km from Steinbach). Eventually, I made it to Wachau, altogether, accumulating about 200km of cycling on this day (in a little above 10h). Clearly, I tested my limits with this attempt to get as close to Wien as possible.
