Großer Teich in the Soest Old Town

Highlight • Lake

Today I got on my bike, still sick, and at least did the short circuit, which I've never done before. At the checkpoint and at the finish I almost coughed my lungs out, it was really bad and not nice. After all the rain, the muddy sections were really bad.
