I free-camped a fair amount in northern and eastern Europe. The funniest moment was in Poland where I woke up to the sight of a bunch of women getting off a bus to pee in the forest. I don't think they ever saw me in my tent in the background. I had a self-designed tent that used my bike as the support, so that no one could steal my bike without waking me up.
One of the other long-distance cyclists I met was free-camping just 50-100 yards away from me in Norway. I was completely unaware of his presence until we were both hitting the road again in the morning. We ended up cycling together for a while. Two very different styles of cycling though. He would cycle at a faster pace but take breaks. I, on the other hand, preferred to cycle a straight four hours at a more leisurely pace before taking a break. So we would meet up for lunch and at the end of the day.
Great shots Tristan, you definitely have a talent for it!
