A wonderful bike path. Highly recommended.
We'll also try the Einbeck beer 😀

The first major tour of the year took us by train (enjoy it to the fullest) to Göttingen. From there we followed the Leine-Heide cycle path to Alfeld. We had a delicious lunch break in Einbeck's old town. This was followed by a visit from the parents in Freden.

...through Göttingen on the Leine is truly beautiful and quiet. The route then led me through fields, mostly with some railway line nearby, and with heavy traffic. A lovely tour to Northeim. Northeim itself is a small town with many beautiful half-timbered houses. A City Center is somewhat tucked away right in the center, which unfortunately means there are many …

It was really cold in the morning - but dry again. Unfortunately, a lot is closed on May 1st - including the Einbecker brewery 😭
But the tour was again very nice and, like part 1, well developed. The last climb to the hotel was the blast at the end. I'm looking forward to the departure tomorrow 😁

May 1st a different way...
The weather was on our side again - cold but dry!
The trail is very good - fields, river, small villages.
Einbeck is a chic town with a very beautiful old town.

The family was able to do without me for the weekend and a friend suggested we go cycling for a weekend. Huhu !!
Family-free and cycling - what more do I want!
After the bumpy journey with an unplanned change in Hanover, a warm cycle tour on Friday afternoon and a nice evening in Göttingen, we started our first section …

Gusty headwinds were my constant companion on the second stage, 74 km to Alfeld (Leine); however, there was less of the Leine River visible. I briefly left the main route in Northeim (it was a weekly market)!
Today, I had to negotiate many gravel roads between railway lines and beautiful countryside. The Leine River was only at my side again …
