Covered Wooden Bridge Over the Neckar to Ihlingen

Highlight • Bridge

If you see dark clouds gathering in Neckartal - the bridge to Ihlingen is the solution. Take shelter and wait until the shower is over. Then continue driving in the dry :-)

I had to be quick, so the climb to Betra was just right today. ✅
The weather was (almost) perfect: bright sunshine to overcast was the mood today. I was grateful it wasn't raining. ☀️🍀💨

I needed a break from my desk. The bike screamed for movement and clouds parted in the sky - a sign! Get on the bike and ride off as long as it doesn't rain..... the round was quickly found: along the Neckar valley, then a climb out of the valley and back home 🚴🏻‍♂️🚲🚴🏾‍♀️🚴🏾

I had to ride the Betra-Runde again to compare the Reisersd with the gravel bike. It was clear.

Short and good. I chose the route according to the cloud cover: my path led me increasingly towards blue skies. I avoided cloud accumulations. It was a cool ride.

By evening, it was only twenty degrees, making it a good opportunity for a quick walk—it felt good. It wasn't long, after all 🍀

If you cycle in the evening, there is less going on on the Neckar Valley Cycle Path. And the light is different too. After Betra and through the forest along the railway line, it was entertaining and refreshing - it was a mild 15 degrees.

The sun is shining. That was my starting signal at 0 degrees. The onion principle and warm gloves kept me warm. Riding uphill helped generate the heat from within itself. It only got cold going downhill. I will do it again 👍

Actually, the weather isn't all that changeable—it hasn't rained yet this morning. While cycling, you see the dark clouds and subconsciously—at least I do—look for brighter or even cloudless patches in the sky. So today we decided to take a short ride based on the algorithm just described.
