View of the Ems and the Emsaue from the pedestrian and bicycle bridge in Rheine

Highlight • Viewpoint

The name comes from the time when Rheine was the first garrison town. The soldiers marched over this bridge from the clothing store on the left of the Ems to the barracks on the right of the Ems. After working hours they strived from the barracks on the right of the Ems to the bars and dance halls on the left of the Ems and back.

Crazy ascent on the Sonnenweg

Highlight • Climb

A real challenge. On the way up, not only the thighs burn, but also the lungs. The feeling when you've made it rewarded for everything.

Picturesque route south of Ibbenbüren

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Hello dear people,
If you don't want to ride your racing bike through Ibbenbüren town, there is a charming alternative or section here. I would give the asphalt of the side road a grade of 2. Be careful with the two cushions mounted on it (they are supposed to reduce the speed). If you choose this option, you will be rewarded with the idyllic scenery of the adjacent Teutoburg Forest (near the "Dörenther Klippen") and the view of Ibbenbüren. Have fun with and on the section.

Million Bridge - view of the wet triangle

Highlight • River

The so-called "wet triangle", near Hörstel-Bergeshövede in the Tecklenburger Land region, refers to the waterway triangle where the Mittellandkanal (MLK) branches off from the Dortmund-Ems-Kanal (DEK) at km 108.35 and crosses the Teutoburg Forest. The ridge here shows a striking, natural incision (Gravenhorster gorge) between the Huckberg and Bergeshöveder Berg, which follows the MLK.

Historic Market Square, Rheine

Highlight • Historical Site

With its 73,000 inhabitants, Rheine is the second largest city in the Münsterland. The city is divided into almost two equal parts by the Ems, but the Dortmund-Ems Canal is also not far away. In addition to some very beautiful baroque buildings (such as the mill on the Emswehr), Rheine offers a variety of nature experiences such as the saltworks park in the northwest or the nature zoo.

Nice weather, great route, good food, nice people. What more do you want? Only the date was a bit unfavorable with Mother's Day. Otherwise I would have driven the 152 km.

After the last few days of hard intervals, I was able to do a lap in basic mode today at an average of 210 watts.
The last hour was very hard with the headwind coming up. I had to pay tribute to the efforts of the last few days.
