May 9, 2026,Trailspass am Buechberg und einmal rund um den Obersee

Today I felt like combining a trail ride with a complete tour of the Obersee – in absolutely brilliant weather. It started by going over the Buchberg, where I specifically rode the purpose-built trails: Kathrinen-Trail, Hunsrücken-Trail, and Grynau-Trail. All blue trails and overall really good and smooth to ride – except for one tight hairpin turn downhill on the Grynau-Trail. …

Today a pleasure tour with the family around the Obersee and a refreshment break at Wangen airfield! I've also eaten better...it's a shame!

March 20, 2025,Vor dem Besuch aus der Sahara noch schnell den (nicht das!) Cello gefahren

Visited the Buechberg for a bit and did a few trails (including the Cello Trail). Everything was dry and rideable, but I still had problems in a few places, but that was probably due to my (in)abilities 😜
Then back via Grynau, Schmerikon, and Rapperswil.
Great weather. Shorts, short sleeves, in short: spring!!! 😎🌞🌻

October 2, 2023,⚡🚵‍♂️ Runde ab Grynau um den Obersee - Besuch des einzigartigen "enea Baummuseums" 🌲🌳🌴🤩🌞

Recently we have been doing more and more tours not just for biking or hiking, but also for experiences or sightseeing.
Today we went to a new bike area for us and drove around the Obersee (upper part of Lake Zurich), in beautiful weather 🌞 but rather poor visibility (smoke from the forest fires in Canada).

August 14, 2025,Rapperswil - Schmerikon - Buechberg - Lachen - Home

Today is my first ride in over a month. My arm seems to be feeling better, so I'll give it a try. Nothing special, just a loop around Lake Obersee. Asphalt, gravel, trails, roots, pushing uphill—everything there, a comprehensive endurance test.
The weather was more pleasant than expected, and the wind and shade in the forest did the rest.
