    Good railway path and passable for all bikes, just not necessarily for racing bikes

      The Oldenburg–Brake railway line is a former, almost 32-kilometer-long railway line from Oldenburg to Brake (Lower Weser). Since its commissioning in 1896 by the Grand Ducal Oldenburg Railway (GOE), the line was in continuous operation until 1976.
      The line was also nicknamed the "Rubber Railway." The track bed, laid on the boggy ground, gave way considerably under the weight of the trains, giving passengers the impression of riding on rubber.
      Today, the tracks have been removed, and parts of the former route have been preserved as a worthwhile cycling and hiking trail.
