Two-sided street along the Erft which are connected by wooden bridges. The path later leads across a graveled paved path, but poses no problems and leads through the green. Very nice view of the still young Erft.

It's been a long, long time. 12/12/22 was the last round. Many adversities have happened since then. But today was really fun again. So "To a new one".

Today we went to Iversheim to the pizza machine. I'll be using that one soon. I heard from a friend that the pizzas are delicious. 3 minutes is wrong but in five minutes it's done. The Erftradweg, near Kirspenich, is completely passable again. It's back under the bridge.
