September 17, 2024,⛈️🫧🙄 Hochwasser Tour 2024 Meißen / Diesbar Seußlitz 😬🙄🌊#Sduro-2

I would much rather have taken off on my bio rocket, but for certain reasons 🫧⛈️🌊🙄😬 the other bike works just fine.

Riding to work isn't possible either, the bike path is flooded everywhere.

Otherwise I would have ridden my bike to Orbeid today 🚴💨 🙄😊
