Trip: Austria - Day 9 Klagenfurt, Day 10 Leoben/Sankt Michael, Day 11 Graz
Day 9

As someone who bikes around an awful lot... i've been there too, when you rent a bike at a place and realize that you're not gonna make it back in time unless you really pedal like a maniac for the last hour, so you end up exhausted and missing out on all the fun sights at the end. But in some ways that's part of the adventure, i suppose. By cycling (compared to car, but not compared to walking) you are deliberately taking a slow route, and that means you get to enjoy stuff you might not otherwise have seen, while also missing stuff that might be too far or steep to conveniently get to. I'm glad you made it, though, and i will say that the more you bike the better you get at estimating how long it's gonna take to get around, as well as spacing it out so you get a snack before a big hill and a break after it etc. Thanks for sharing!
