The second-to-last day of my cycling trip actually went almost smoothly. Only four times did Komoot lead me over nonexistent or closed bridges, so I had to re-plan a bit.
But there were perfect bike paths, a few less-than-perfect bike paths, beautiful towns and villages, stunning panoramas

On August 24th, I started quite late. When I took a wrong turn, I saw a woman watering her garden. She immediately filled my water bottles because I had run out of water.
After that, I spent a long time on beautiful forest paths. 17 kilometers further, I came across a village festival, a few kilometers

On August 23rd, I first go to Bełchatów, the largest open-cast lignite mine in Poland. After 50 kilometers, I plan to take a break at a bus stop in Nowa Brzeźnica. But a man approaches me, invites me to lunch, we chat a bit, drink coffee, I refill my water, and he gives me two more drinks for the rest

You're slowly reaching home, I think it's only two or three days. I've drawn your route every day, as I'll be doing half of your trip next year.
I wish you all the best for the last few kilometers of your journey and a great job on your cycling.
Cheers, Erwin

I briefly pass "Bumblebee" from Transformers, then the route leads for about 20 km along the Żerański Canal. From the motorway bridge named after

Today I'm simply following the Eurovelo 11 cycle route. After just a few kilometers, and the first beautiful gravel section, I see a huge concrete structure in the forest, the "Lepak" bunker. I hadn't realized there were so many World War II bunkers here in Nowogród. I also check out bunker number 6

After riding only on beautiful bike paths and gravel roads yesterday, I thought today would be the same. But between perfectly paved roads, the route repeatedly led over poor asphalt and sandy gravel paths, which almost shook out the last brain cells in my brain.
It was a tough day, but the nature is

Today, I first take a short ride to the point where the borders of Lithuania, Poland, and Russia meet. Then, I continue through beautiful, hilly countryside to Jeleniewo. There, I treat myself to a delicious Cordon Bleu and a cappuccino.
Then I continue, and shortly after Suwałki, I get a flat tire. At

August 26th is my last day of my cycling trip. First, I cycle to the Lukov Castle ruins; the 5 kilometers, including two steep climbs, take me almost an hour. Once at the top, I visit the castle and the exhibition—very interesting history that can be felt and seen in every corner. After a short gravel
