"Der Jakobsweg beginnt vor der eigenen Haustür." Nach diesem Motto starten Christine (Jg. 1958), Kito (Pinscher-Mix, Jg. 2019) und ich (Jg. 1956) im Herbst 2021 von unserem Zuhause in Hamburg, unweit der Via Baltica. In drei Blöcken erreichen wir im Herbst 2022 Trier. Ein Jahr später - im September/Oktober 2023 - pilgern wir von dort aus weiter durch Saargau, Lothringen, Champagne bis nach Vézelay im Burgund und erleben dabei Landschaften, die wir bislang alle noch nicht kannten. Von unseren Erlebnissen und Eindrücken auf dieser Pilgerreise mit Hund zwischen der Via Coloniensis (bis Trier) und der Via Lemovicensis (ab Vézelay) berichtet dieser zweite Band unseres großen Pilgerprojekts von Zuhause bis nach Santiago de Compostela, das wir - so Gott will - 2025 beenden wollen. Pilgern in Frankreich ist nicht nur der Sprache wegen anders als Pilgern in Deutschland. Das macht es nicht weniger reizvoll, zumal wir, wann immer wir Hilfe benötigten, auch hier immer wieder "Pilgerengel" trafen.

Sechs teils schon ergraute Radler werfen sich ins Abenteuer und machen sich mit ihrem Drahtesel auf den Weg. Von der Haustür in Ahaus, im westlichen Münsterland aus starten sie mit riesigem Respekt, eine 2.600 Kilometer lange Tour durch die Niederlande, Belgien und Frankreich und anschließend durch Spanien auf dem berühmten Camino Frances. Bei teils widrigen Wetterverhältnissen, Hitze und Kälte, schneidigem Gegenwind folgen sie durch blühende Landschaften und urbane Städte, über schneebedeckte Berge den Millionen Pilgern aus aller Welt, die seit mehr als tausend Jahren nach Santiago de Compostela und weiter bis Finisterre aufgebrochen sind. Mit Sattelfestigkeit und Pedaltreue überwinden sie Erschöpfung und Aufgabegedanken. Und Gott? Am Ende stellen sie fest, dass Radpilgern etwas anderes ist als nur Radwandern. Der Autor erzählt unbefangen und manchmal augenzwinkernd von religiösen Stätten mit ihren Geschichten und Legenden, Wegeerfahrungen in der Gruppe und emotionalen Begegnungen mit Einheimischen und Pilgern. Er gibt Radwanderern Tipps. Das Buch soll die außergewöhnliche, entschleunigende Kraft einer solchen Reise vermitteln und all diejenigen ermuntern, die sich noch nicht selbst auf den Weg zum Grab des heiligen Jakob gemacht haben.
