November 23, 2022,Mittwochsrunde - Lieber wiederlich als wieder nicht

True to the motto, we went through snow, mud and cold from 700 meters in altitude. Well, everyone can drive when the sun is shining.

April 28, 2022,Erste Tour Richtung Rennsteig in diesem Jahr

The temperatures are finally such that after the winter you can go up the "heights" again (with shorts). Tonight it was 10 degrees. There are a few places where there is still some snow left. But you have to look for them, at least on the south side.
