February 18, 2024,Ergon meets SQlab

Today we went to test the new Ergon GA3 with the newly purchased SQlab 60X.
The saddle is hard, but still much better than the old one and the 🍆 feels much more comfortable 🤣
As far as the handles are concerned, much more relaxed. I just have to get used to it a bit and make some fine adjustments.

September 4, 2022,Sonntagnachmittag Dippser Heide•Rabenauer Grund😍

Ending the Sunday afternoon with a leg tour was just the right thing for us.... Fast ride and ascent at a brisk pace... Sunday in the Rabenauer Grund is a no-go.... but the people were already sitting in front of the Klotze, so that we could really board along the bottom completely alone.... what a treat😍😍😍
