September 18, 2021,Blockline 8000 Bike-Loop1

Done!
Driven all three loops of the Blockline 8000. Today we met a few fellow campaigners with gravel bikes on the way. We regretted you a little because there were sections today that are not suitable for gravel or families.
It was noticeable again today that the blockline arches / gates on the route are not yet really integrated into …

Challenge against myself, that was the plan. So, I packed my things and headed off to the Erzgebirge. The Blockline was calling😄

Of course without an e-bike 🤜🤛

April 29, 2023,Blockline - Loop 1

In rainy, cold weather we went on Loop 1 of the Blockline today. A top signposted route that you can safely ride on a gravel bike in dry conditions. With the very soft ground today, an MTB with a decent lug profile was just the thing. The route is very varied and well signposted and leads past many interesting opportunities …

Blockline Loop1... a beautiful, challenging tour through nature... by far the best signposted tour... you can do it without a satnav... lovely rest areas and places to stop for refreshments... everything was built with a lot of love. We give it 6 out of 5 stars and look forward to Loop 2 and 3 😊👍
