View of Mainz from the Rhine Riverbank

Highlight • Viewpoint

It's almost like the "small" skyline of Frankfurt am Main. A very nice picture. The downer in the view is the huge new building, which is now directly in front of the cathedral.

Finally, vacation! I want to use it to cycle the Main River Cycle Route. After the usual 40-minute train delay, I set off from Mainz Central Station at noon. In cold but dry weather, the cycle path was pleasant and easy to ride.
This tour is also a bit of a trip down memory lane for me, as I've been …

The new bike (CUBE Nuroad) had to go back to the dealer. So I took the S-Bahn to Wiesbaden. In Wiesbaden there were lots of dark clouds at midday and rain was forecast. But as the weather got nicer towards the afternoon, I just cycled the whole way home along the Main.

Today is the last stage. The track is anything but a highlight. Due to the celebrations for 30.04. / 01.05. the route was lined with rubbish and overflowing bins. In addition, there were miserable bike paths. It's different in Hesse than in Bavaria :((
Addendum to May 2nd: DB made an effort and brought me and my equipment home on …
