After a long day of meetings, booked an overnight stay in Nuremberg, which enables a bike expedition through the Pegnitz Valley. On the way back, I circled Lake Wöhrder.
I'm exhausted and not just mentally tired .... 😅 ... and that's how it should be ... 😉

Start and finish is the car park at the outdoor pool in Lauf.
A fairly varied tour that is easy to drive.
There was a market in Nuremberg and we rewarded ourselves with delicious poppy seed cheesecake ☺️
Arriving back in Lauf, we were hit by a rain shower...which was used extensively to rest.
