Hohenstaufenbahn Cycle Path

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.

Forum Gold and Silver

Highlight • Monument

Created for the State Garden Show 2014 and still a successful eye-catcher and landmark today. The FORUM restaurant is located directly on the Rems, highly recommended.

View of the Old Town and the Gold and Silver Forum, Schwäbisch Gmünd

Highlight • Viewpoint

The "Forum Gold and Silver" is located at the confluence of the Rems and Josefsbach rivers. It's one of the few modern buildings in the city center. Its attractive exterior facade changes color depending on the position of the sun. A restaurant is located on the ground floor.

September 11, 2022,Rennrad Ba: O'zapft is 🪰Reha-Runde

After no wetness was to be expected from above today, there was some movement therapy without major inclines to test my injured knee, which I left hanging on the edge of the bed in the dark. And the remaining poison from the second 🪰 tiger mosquito bite within ten days also had to go.

On the old Hohenstaufen railway line, the Klepperle, you can get from the Filstal to Schwäbisch Gmünd on a well-paved and almost gradient-free route. Great town in the Stauferland. We went back via the Beutenbachtal to the Wäscherschlössle. Perfect, completely car-free and beautiful.

Finally no rain again 🥳. Today was a good day to torment your inner bastard. He's really earned it since last week. With a frosty headwind, we headed east via Waldstetten, Weiler i. i.e. ⛰️⛰️⛰️ on the Hornberg. The ascent to the Furtlepass wasn't that great, because there was quite a lot 🚙🚗🚐🚚🚛🚜🏍️. I turned right several times to avoid …

Cozy house round and therefore narrowly escaped the localized rain 😀. But I was dressed a little too warm for that 🥵. I have to get used to the changeable weather again.

February 8, 2025,Rennrad Cross: "Nix geht mehr" - Reloaded

Today I rolled in the other direction to Straßdorf to test my calves. Unfortunately, it didn't go much better ☹️ and mountains are definitely just for show at the moment 🕵️. The closure of Maitis towards Hohenstaufen came at just the right time 😁. On the way back near Lenglingen I briefly followed an XXL sweeper of a slightly different …

Somehow the mood today was like the weather 🥱🕳️Yesterday's "full body garden workout" still had an effect. But my inner 🐷🐕 was doing great. He almost, but only almost won. The fight lasted almost four hours.
As a reward there was a small house round. But there wasn't really any fun there either. Such crap, I had completely forgotten about …

Today, due to lack of time, there was only a short lap with a short stop at Krettenhof to catch a glimpse of the Deutschland Tour. At this point, it was already quite warm 🥵 and the three breakaway riders were quite optimistic 🤷. Luckily, there was a bit of wind most of the time on my lap and some …
