After so many larger hills, a "flat tour" was announced again today. Some beautiful trails along the Aare.

Started in relatively cool weather and, above all, with sunshine. Unfortunately, the clouds didn't take long to appear 🥴. Luckily, the clouds kept their moisture until I had finished the round 😉.

A nice tour to the Gibensdorfer Horn under a local guide with @Bruno B.. Finally, a short relaxation tour around the Klingnau reservoir with Aargau's cultural hot spots. The temperatures were summery - 25 degrees and this in October! 👍

We went down to the Limmat valley via the Quellenstorfer Horn. Then along the Aare to the Klingnau reservoir and back again. Met the "Gümmeler" professionals 🚲 by chance on the way. You were on lap 5 of the Grand Prix of the Canton of Aargau race.

Out during the day, back at night 🤪🤷🏼‍♀️...

At the beginning, I would like to write down a saying that fits me today:

You are exactly right as you are. Be naughty and wild and wonderful. 🙃🚵‍♂️😍🤪🐞🍀

When I go cycling, I don't like having to plan so much... My heart decides where we're going ❤️, me and my Mönsterli …

The first time I put on my long trousers. Well in the morning it was OK (6 degrees). Then later with the sun it was definitely too warm in there. Fortunately, the tour was topographically relatively flat and the sweat effect was therefore limited 😅.

Again the day was too short... The beginning of the twilight into the coming night... Short round, with caressing summer air, in between with the intense scent of the blooming trees, with birdsong mixed with the clattering of frogs...
Slowly time to fall into my dreams... Good night... 💫🌟🌙🌟💫
