everything explained very well!
Was here for the first time today and next to the impressive Tanzlinde I noticed the great asphalt while driving. Little traffic, makes driving here really fun

July 28, 2024,Möglichst flach für die erste Rennradtour des Sommers!

My first road bike tour this summer. It was exhausting, but my knee held up and the tailwind from Burgkunstadt to Kulmbach was just brilliant! I'm going for a drink at the beer festival this evening!

August 17, 2025,"Sella Ronda" von Kulmbach

On Sundays, road biking is simply fun; no hassle with drivers. Apart from one emergency stop due to a dog leash stretched across the sidewalk (human on the left, dog on the right!), everything was fine. After Stadtsteinach, Silvia overtook me and, after a brief chat, turned off at Zettlitz. I really like this route because, thanks to the lack …

Flat round was announced. Via Stadtsteinach, Rugendorf, Marktrodach, Kronach, Küps, Redwitz a. i.e. Rodach, Zettlitz and Burgkunstadt home again. Wonderful weather and really pleasantly refreshing temperatures halfway through the route. This round is really recommended, as there is a large proportion of cycle paths.

I wanted to see how long the batteries of the heatable laundry last.
Was there still enough power even after 3 hours 45 minutes. I even had to set the sock heater to a lower output because it got very warm. In any case, keeps you comfortably warm and dry for 100 km.
Freezing was yesterday 🙋‍♂️

Relatively few racing cyclists on the road today and the …
