May 20, 2025,Kleine Runde um den See

Today was all about lying in the sun and lazing around.😇
But since the food was, as is often the case, too much, I had to take a little digestion walk.😎
But I did manage to take a few photos, and it was pleasant and enjoyable even with a full stomach.🤩

June 4, 2026,(D-Gunzenhausen) eMTB Zulauf zum Brombachsee – Altmühlsee Runde von der Schnackenmühle

Nice tour and made a bit of distance around the Altmühlsee.

This tour is really recommended.

If the weather permits, another round around the large Brombachsee is planned for tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, currently it has been raining since 6 PM today.
