The three Llangollen area lads cycling to Thailand crossed from Germany into Austria during the fourth week of their epic journey,
Dyfan Hughes, 17, James Thomas, 18, and Louis Dennis, 18, had never ridden a bike further than the shop near their homes when they set out a few weeks go on their 18-month quest to reach Asia.
Once there they aim to meet up with their friend Harrison who moved to Thailand six months ago after his dad died from a heart attack and to raise money for heart research.
On day 28 of the trip they recorded on one of their short films how they had encountered heavy rain for the first time as they headed along he banks of the River Danube - and were lucky enough to have some tasty bread donated by a local family as they stopped off in a town.
The crossing into Austria came on day 30 and there was a mention of how a woman from Wales they happened to meet paid for their breakfasts.
A couple of days later they were telling how they had been interviewed on radio in Welsh - but there's no explanation of how this came about. There was some bike trouble for Louis but that was soon fixed at a local cycle shop.
On day 33 they noted they were well on track to reach Vienna by the weekend.
