Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Beautiful bike path without a steep slope ,, can drive well with speed. On the weekend, however, it is like on a German highway.

Highlight • Religious Site

Unfortunately, the chapel is family owned and mostly locked. But also from the outside, it is worth seeing!

Short lap in front of the racing bike regulars' table. @Albtrödler I remember racing bike meetings and ice cream differently 😂

By the evening, the aftermath of yesterday's tour was forgotten, so I was able to pull myself together for a short but brisk round.

November 20, 2023,Nix Kacheln, nix Quadrate - heute nur SPEED (Schurwaldrunde)

Today, for a change, no squares and tiles were collected 😉 I wanted to test my new gravel tires (Pathfinder Pro from Specialized), which I've been using for 5 weeks, for their speed capability. And what can I say: Test passed👍 With these things you can accelerate easily even on asphalt. They don't come close to my Grand Prix 5000, …

The first working day after the holiday is done and then a round after work!
The only goal today: The 30 has to stand 😂😉
Full throttle from start to finish, no breaks and no photos.
Made a 30 cut for the second time. To be honest, I don't have to have it on every tour. But after taking over …

Questions upon questions: tile round or a round without tiles?, Alb or Schurwald?, crosser or MTB?, or, if you want to follow your inner demons, would you rather ride the couch? I then decided on a Schurwald round without tiles. I did take 5 tiles along the side of the path with me to expand my oversquare to 75 x …

Cozy after-work break!
And if some might not believe it, today was my first tour with click shoes. So far I've always ridden in normal shoes. I was a bit nervous at first, but then it went better than I thought!

I actually didn't have time to cycle. Before the late shift I had a doctor's appointment, and I still had to go shopping and cook. Since I didn't get a chance to cycle yesterday, I really wanted to get on my bike today before the weather got worse tomorrow. So I only had one option: to do my home circuit, …
