October 9, 2022,Von Brilon nach Biker's Inn mit kleiner Runde am Möhnesee

The weather played along, so it was a nice, quiet tour with delicious coffee and cake at the Biker's Inn at half-time and many sights along the way. Worth repeating 😉

Back along the lake to Brilon. Since it is always nice to walk along the Möhne, the heat with the wind was easy to bear. At the Hiebammen, conclusion of the tour. Delicious food and beers, a pleasure in the heat.

I've wanted to do this tour for a long time!
First you take the train through the Ruhr Valley to Brilon. Every two hours it goes directly to Brilon Stadt, otherwise you have to change trains once.
If you have a problem with your bike like me: the bike shop is not far away and opens at 9:30 am! 😉🚲 …

At the train station in Brilon Wald there are no ramps, let alone an elevator, very steep stairs (2x8 down, 2x8 up), otherwise a very nice tour today with lots of funny people, if we had taken every beer, we would be fat 😅😅😅
