Grounded Tour 2012

Start: Freiburg - Sept. 2 2012
End: Chamonix - Sept. 16 2012

Once again this year - after our 2011 Los Pirineos Tour - we were on the road again! This time things were different. This time we threw out yet another luxury ... our bikes! On foot, roughly 350 miles through 35,600' of elevation; this summer, we were grounded.

The tour started in Freiburg, Germany through Switzerland and parts of France to end by the foot of the mount Blanc in Chamonix, France. Fifteen days, day for day, we placed about 690,000 times one foot in front of the other.
