Germany’s team base – 2026 World Cup in the USA: Winston-Salem – the best cycle routes

- “Same Sun” chronicles Wiebke Lühmann’s 20,150-km cycle journey, undertaken over 430 days through 22 countries, from Freiburg to the Cape of Good Hope.
- The 82-minute documentary, compiled from 105 hours of footage, explores encounters, doubts and personal growth, whilst gently challenging the notion that adventure is a man’s domain.
- The summer tour takes the film to open-air and cinema screenings across the DACH region, often followed by a live Q&A; Wiebke’s book *Immer Richtung Süden* is also being published to accompany the tour.
