February 23, 2023,Schmuddelwetterrunde 🚲🌧🥶

Do a quick lap before the bad weather starts again. That was the plan. And that's when you believe the weather report... by the way, it started raining exactly an hour early 🙈😄 Soaking wet, but happy and without a fall (slicks on the racer) arrived back home.
