This is not a conventional tour journal. I didn't really do a 5070 day long bike tour!

Instead this is a digest that summarizes my first 18 bike tours from 1988-2002, before I started creating online tour journals.

The original goal was merely to archive maps of my early tour routes. While doing that I decided to add some summarizing prose and a few photos scanned from 35mm negatives. It was fun to re-live each tour to a certain extent.

This document doesn't fit the tour journal format perfectly but I'm pleased with the result. I hope you like it.
