London to Budapest - Part #4 - Amsterdam to Frankfurt
A $4 Tier Patreon Exclusive Video
We leave Amsterdam and it's tainted mushroom flavoured memories behind and head inland towards Germany and the heart of the adventure.
My aim is now to skip from city to city, partying as I go and working hard on the bike in between. That's exactly what I did.
Highlights include sleeping on a park bench in Dusseldorf, almost killing a 5 year old German girl, and a godlike intervention by the banks of the river Rhine. This episode also sees the introduction of regular GoPro footage, as well as the odd song that I composed in my head as I peddled away like a metronome.
Thanks for watching everyone!
*Sorry about the blurred face for much of this video. My webcam's focus changes and then doesn't seem to correct itself. In future I'll keep it on one setting*

As an American…that American accent was gold😂
Wizard, when is your album coming out? You've been teasing that for ages mate.
What's he going on abouuut, he aint my frieeend
I love the song, Tom. I’m a musician, too, and when I get on long rides by myself (in the right moods, of course), I do the same thing! Good job getting a demo made, too.
I know Pedal didn’t make the cut for the album but is there anyway you would still have it available for sale? I would love to download this song, I really like it.
Bit late to the party on this as I'm catching up from a few weeks of being unwell. That song was genuinely solid and you should definitely use it to accompany a montage or timelapse in one of your exploration videos at some point. The lyrics may not fit the theme but the harmonies etc seem like they would be pretty well suited to that.
First time I see someone from outside Netherlands who has heard of the town where I grew up, even cycled through it.. Scherpenzeel :D
I actually live in Babberich, you must have cycled right past my house!
Loving this, I have a summer roadtrip booked up doing the start of this in reverse (up the Rhein to Cologne, Amsterdam n Brugge). Great story telling!
You instantly transformed into Will Ferrel wearing sunglasses and a gray wig when you started talking about the plums gettin a nice blueish hue. Classic. Another nice one mate, getting more and more inspired to do a trip like this myself this summer. When this series is done I would love a video about pros and cons, things to look/watch out for in a trip like this ... Keep wizardin'!
I’m from Cologne and it was nice to see you passing by my city and liking it and I am actually surprised you stayed in Düsseldorf instead of Cologne for the night. I would’ve thought the nightlife would be better here but I’m no expert in that or Interrail travelling
Laughed out loud at the impression of the Pittsburgh boys. Loving these.
Solid tune. Cracking tales. Keep em rolling.
This is so great! I feel like I'm there with you. I'm gonna miss these once it's over...
Good tune
Come for the stories. Stay for the baked beats.
Been looking forward to this one!
Would love to hear the whole song and can't wait for the new album!
wooooooooo
Get in!
