Today, finally, we're having another men's ride with Willi. We take the train to Neuenburg. From there, we start a loop around the lake. After a snack, we set off on our bikes and enjoy the pleasant temperatures. On the west side of the lake, we ride partly through vineyards or along the shore, where we occasionally have unobstructed views of the water. Later, the landscape is characterized by farmland, wooded areas, and small nature reserves. We actually wanted to cycle back to Freiburg and complete the loop, but there were no more bike spaces available. So we headed home from Ins. It was beautiful, a beautiful day of cycling!

Today I was out and about in French Switzerland again...... In beautiful but autumnal weather, I spontaneously decided to tackle the long-planned tour around Lake Neuchâtel😃.... Great route with beautiful viewpoints. In the warmer season, many small beaches invite you to swim🏊‍♂️ A successful end to the holiday😄 https://www.relive.cc/view/veqzQYPP5B6

Nothing complicated, just the fairly strong headwind and 2 punctures on the trails not made for road bikes with 23 tires.

Finally for the first time around the lake. A bike ride, not a photo tour and I wanted to be back by noon. It's clear which side of the lake is the more beautiful... our 🤩🚴‍♀️

Today I cycled around Lake Neuchâtel. A really nice tour with a great refreshment stop along the way! It's best to always follow the signs, otherwise your bike will look the same. 🙈😂

Around Lake Neuchâtel, the largest lake in Switzerland. Magnificent discoveries with beaches, vineyards, museums, bars that require strolling and restaurants where it is good to stop for a tasting of local products. Do not forget to visit the cellars. The lake water is transparent and longs for swimming. Enjoy, the course is almost without climb.
