Europe to USA by Velomobile - part 1 (Germany & The Netherlands)

In June 2019, I retired from the US Air Force and moved back to the USA. Instead of flying back, I made the trip by cycling with my Quest Velomobile. This is part 1 of the trip as I leave Langbroich, Germany and cycle to the German border with Denmark.

I am riding a Carbon Quest Velomobile designed by Velomobiel.nl in Dronten, Netherlands. (https://en.velomobiel.nl)
