March 11, 2023,Fahrradtour Diemelsee Sperrmauer-Runde von Heringhausen 🚴🏼‍♀️🚴🏼

A nice round 🚴🏼🐕🚴🏼 ♀️ around the Diemel dam, along the Itter and the Diemel, until both end in the Diemelsee in front of the dam. During the night it had stormed 🌬️ and snowed 🌨️ and in the morning everything was wintry overcast. So dressed warmly and on the bikes, it was thawing again.

Small round with the 🚴 ♀️. When I arrived at the barrier wall, I was greeted with the words: "A biobike - does that still exist?" welcomed. It's a good thing that the lake is almost flat.
