Hello everybody!
we are three students from Madrid who are thinking about making a cycling-tour around belgium and holland for more or less 15 days.
Neither of us has ever done a long cycling tour so we have a lot of questions. The most important is the economic one (because of our condition=students). I would like to know how much (approoximately) can cost such a tour, including: bike (a normal one, not the worst and not the best), the bags for the bike, sleeping-bag, campings and a tent for three.
I also would appreciate the opinion of some of you: ¿Do you think it's a good idea to do this tour without any experience and no mechanical knowledge? Only one thing is clear, we are very enthusistic and sportifs, but we are not sure its enough....
Thank you for your help!!
If you wish answering in german, spanish or french, there is no problem
