We write December 15. It's almost Christmas, the solstice is just around the corner. In other words, we are in the darkest time of the year. Add to that that we are all in an evening lockdown again. After 5 o'clock in the evening we are not allowed to exercise in groups. Strava is full of Zwifters, but

A weekend of bikepacking in November. A perhaps somewhat strange tradition on paper, but always a guarantee for beautiful adventures and stories. Well prepared, the men set out for two days of plowing and plodding through wind and weather. From Roermond via Tilburg home in two days, simply because we

Planned a week later, but then it's still there. Mark's new bike has finally arrived! So the men set out again to extensively test the titanium gravel sample. Again a route, around Utrecht, with many unpaved paths. But we didn't talk about that in the Nazis. An extra episode for you listeners with a

A trip on perhaps the last beautiful Saturday of the season. While waiting for the new bike, Koen and Mark planned an extensive gravel ride around Hilversum. The bike was not there on time, so it was a round of processing and changing sentences. The leaves were already falling from the trees but the

A year later than planned, the time has finally come: the first 5bar expedition has taken place! Koen and Mark received a group of twenty cycling friends to cycle this route through Salland. The route contains cobblestones, gravel and climbs and takes you past literal and figurative highlights of the

Unfinished business - Marken. The former island of Marken is now accessible by car and bicycle via a dike and was part of the Shortest Night route. Due to circumstances (listen to episode 5) we never made it to Marken this night, so time for repair work. From Muiden, to Marken and back to Muiden. In

What was conceived as an idea during a ride in the dark winter months was brought to fruition during the solstice; make it through the night in the saddle. Because when you say 'longest day', we say 'shortest night'. The shortest night of the year, but the sun is still absent for more than 7 hours.

Life is not always a bed of roses. Sometimes the agendas are suddenly so full that there is no longer a nice, long ride. Fortunately, there is always summer time and that wonderful accompanying phenomenon: the evening ride.
Koen and Mark drove a shorter round this time than you are used to. Back home

The idea of cycling over all the dikes in the Netherlands sounded nice: something different from municipalities or tiles. But the Netherlands appears to have more than 18,000 km of dike. Just stand on it.
Koen and Mark already know the dikes around the Lek like the back of their hand and thought it was

The Lek, the Veluwe and the Achterhoek. What could be better than taking a few days to enjoy this varying Dutch landscape? Just tie the bags to your frame and go!
A first in the Nazit: our first guest. Koen interviewed Mark and Yte Elbrich about their experiences during this bikepacking trip. Is the state

Let de Stigterpad from A to Z. With a piece of Lekdijk and a finale through farmland and the Trekerweg for dessert. Just like the real Strade Bianche.
We sat down for an hour to discuss what we noticed on the road and continued our conversations from the bike. Even though gravel isn't even such a social

A classic episode 0.
An afterthought about our route and cycling adventures. Where to start? Do we open cold? Do we have an opening word?
The microphone is already running. Well then let's just start. Just a nice chat about where we have been, what we have seen, what we noticed and further talk about the

As the loyal listener knows by now, Koen is the real waterman of the two Nazis. How many times has he taught us all his knowledge about water levels, river flows and groundwater levels? Today we cycled as a kind of working visit along one of Koen's projects: the peripheral lakes of our IJsselmeer. It
