August 14, 2025,Blick auf die Talsperre Ohra – Blick auf die Ohratalsperre Runde von Gehlberg

The tour itself is cool, but several sections resemble a glacial valley...it's especially unfortunate that some of the downhill sections are actually quite steep. The extreme climbs are often on loose scree. Perhaps it would have been better to use the great racing trails.
