Preparing for Euro Tour 2014

Yohan at the Velomobile Center in Ganløse, Denmark, re-spoked, trued, and replaced the bearings on the front wheels of the Nomad. With that out of the way, I can turn my attention to the body work. On the list is a new hood, to replace the one stolen, and a lighter and bigger cargo box behind the seat. I'll remove the under-seat 'floor', as all it is really doing is collecting dirt and stones kicked up from the wheels.

All this to prepare for Euro Tour 2014 Oslo-to-Berlin. My dad has decided to join me on this tour, and with it being his first cycle tour we'll go easy and just do the Copenhagen-to-Berlin segment. When he arrives in mid-July, we will set up a Leitra for him and do some small tours around Copenhagen to get used to riding such a different kind of vehicle.
