August 25, 2024,Etappe 4: Von Judenburg nach Leoben – Murradweg

After the third day, it is confirmed: the worst maintained cycle path in Central Europe. Today not so much up and down, but almost always on roads, boring and mostly far away from the river.

Austrians are friendly people. They don't stop greeting and spontaneously rush to help if it just looks like you've lost the route. A motorist waited patiently until we had reached the top of a narrow, steep incline. He saw us sweating and struggling and only then turned onto the road, heading down. The route makers don't want us to cycle …

A racing cyclist stopped... It turned out to be the sergeant major of the nearby air base in Zeltweg, and he explained to us that the plane was carrying soldiers …

Land Steiermark is dizzy with the altitude difference.
I noticed it in stage 5.
Otherwise the e-moped drivers would be deterred if they knew that there were some steep climbs away from the Mur.

I only saw one bio bike rider today 🤦‍♂️.
Otherwise only the watts from Mr. Bosch.
