March 2, 2025,Winter Bike Trophy 2025 Iserlohn

Hello you two,
this tour was really fun. Riding in these temperatures requires warm clothing. I think I'll take part again next year. Iserlohn was the last one for 2025.

And just like that, the 25 WWBT is history again, but it was still worth it. In frosty but sunny weather, @HaldenPete and I said goodbye to the winter season, the summer session can begin.

Together with @Pico and @Alex Frerichs we rode about 15km together, then we went our separate ways due to time constraints.

Today was the last tour to the Superfinisher. Did the short tour with Heike again. It was the sixth short tour compared to 6-7 long tours in previous years.
As almost always in Iserlohn, I got a lot of sun and chatted with countless fellow riders. There were a few new ones too, but the majority have been with me …

Weather was good, the break at K1 came at just the right time when the hail came...😁
Otherwise far too much asphalt... But a great event
Oh yes, the more km come from the journey there and back. Did the computer embezzle... So again 7km more

Today was the last day of the WWBT. What contrasts this year. The start in Capelle in snowfall that turned to rain during the tour. In between tours in spring-like temperatures and today, after a cold start, pure sunshine again. Always great food and always great routes. Many thanks to the organizers and the many helpers. And of course many …
