June 22, 2026,Zum Eis essen 🍨😋 nach Wasungen🚵

Today I rode over Dreißigacker towards Wasungen for the first time. Thanks to the electric assistance (auto mode 😉), it was a pleasant ride today, despite the oppressive heat. As a reward, there was a peach melba sundae at the "turning point" 😋!

Before the big rain comes tomorrow, I took the opportunity to walk my bike.
In Melkers, I put some air on the tires at the gas station and then cycled into the “blue”.
That was enough to get you started and now there's a nice coffee as a reward.

Today we undertook a leisurely little round tour to Wasungen, the weather was absolutely summery. To round off the Whitsun weekend, we indulged today at the ice cream parlor "Zur Linde" in Wasungen. There were many great views, such as towards Landsberg Castle, towards Hohe Geba and you could make out the Melkerser Felsenhäuschen in the distance. A beautiful end!

May 25, 2026,Auf zum Eisessen nach Wasungen

As already mentioned, we went to Wasungen with an almost cloudless sky, there were beautiful views. So you could see Schloss Landsberg well from different sides. In the distance, you could see the Melkerser Felsenhäuschen in the forest and the Geba with its characteristic antenna. The sculptures in Mehmels made us smile as always.😊🤭👋🐝
