On weekends when the weather is nice, I would take the country road a little further away, as it can get very busy there.

October 27, 2021,Schnelle Runde 💨

After 18% on the weekend, a quick one. 💨

But as beautiful as the autumn is golden, the toppings are already so treacherous. Shortly before the Scheppen house, I was almost knocked out of the curve on leaves.

It's time for the winter tires 🚜.

While all the RR flew past me today, for the first time I had a driver who showed his affection for cycling with the windshield wiper system.

From here thanks for the heroic wetting, but I would have preferred Citrus.

From shift to bike...
First time wearing cycling socks...
Immediately feeling like a pro 🤣

A lot going on on the trails...

Ohhhh, Haus Scheppen cake or non-alcoholic shandy?
Damn, already over, no point turning back...

Headwind 🌬 down in Lecker...

Socks hold up...

And already home 🙈

Still looking for the right attitude. But I'm getting close. 😊

In the heat I took a shandy in Haus Scheppen. I will probably never become a training world champion 😄

Still had some catching up to do and finally the 1000 km this year.

But legs were empty, so we went to Scheppen to fill up. ⛽ 😉

Finally dodged a crazy e-biker. 🙄
