October 6, 2024,Von den Wolken verfolgt 🤷‍♂️☁️🌥☁️
This morning on the webcam - Schneekopf in the sun above the clouds. That's where I wanted to go! Out of the clouds, over the clouds! But the clouds didn't want to do what I wanted! In the end I wasn't above the clouds but in and under the clouds - stupid clouds! 😜☁️🌥🤣

Varied MTB round, forest paths, roads and also single trails (some quite adventurous ...)

Actually, I'm going because the sun was shining in the webcam on the Schneekopf .... 🤷‍♂️
Instead I missed gloves and leg warmers at 8 ° C in the fog ... ❄🤦
And then Komoot stole another 200 HM from me. 🤨

I don't know what that newfangled stuff is doing 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️?
My old bike computer is still the most reliable.
It was 680 HM.😅

On the Schneekopf I felt a bit like an Allien 👽😂

Today's highlights: via the summit hiking trail to Sachsenstein and to Seiffahrtsburg. The poacher path down to Gehlberg. Meadow trails and Gehlberg mountain path ♥ ️. Old castle to Dörrberg. From Oberhof we accompanied the Rennsteigläufer to the Adler. Finally, the eagle trail and the street trail trail
