September 9, 2023,El Franky von oben bis unten abgemäht 😃

Today with @Marian I showed some of the well-known trails around Frankenstein Castle 💪👍unfortunately there were also several falls but nothing worse happened, so you have to sort everything out and carry on immediately without thinking about it.

Finally we cooled down with friends (thanks for the invitation Marian 💪)
A very nice day again today 💪🤩

September 20, 2024,Was is bloß aus dem Franky geworden !!!!😞🤮@ Toby

Yesterday we were doing a lot of advertising for Burg Frankenstein Trails @Toby and today we were shocked to discover that many of them had been completely washed out, bombed and in places the ground had simply collapsed.
The jump and the enduro line below the castle were particularly difficult to recognise... and there were also many fallen trees.
There …

August 24, 2023,Trailsgeballare oben und unten am Franky

Today again with @GoodOldSlim at the start. Since I'm on night shift today and only had a limited amount of time, Goodoldslim aka Salim had to come to "me", i.e. in the Odenwald, or rather in the Traildorado Burg Frankenstein. There we first mastered a few trails up there, eg Rollercoaster before it continued below the Franky there are 2 …

April 11, 2023,# TE23.030 | Odenwald Trails: Traildorado Frankenstein II bei wärmenden Sonnenschein

You leave the sunny FFM and drive straight into a fat rain cloud ⛈️🌦️ over the front Odenwald.

The original target of Meliboku was not visible under a thick rain cloud.

So without further ado I rescheduled, because the storm cloud was just pulling away in a southeasterly direction over the Frankenstein.

May 18, 2023,Traildorado Frankenstein III

First time at trail mecca Frankie. Many thanks to the tour planners 😀. A lot of top, trail uphill should be avoided, sometimes way / no way. I'm still blown away by the variety of top trails.

August 2, 2022,Frankenstein reloaded 2

After work ride with Sarah. Because the third day in a row was a little shorter than planned, but still great. Next time we'll try out new trails there... it feels like there's one every 5 meters!

May 7, 2023,Frankenstein - kurze Runde, mal neue trails gefahren

According to @Helius FFM's recommendation: first the Palatinate trails, then the crash barrier trail and a nice new trail to the left of the channel.

Been a bit quick, met e-mtbler 😜
