In the morning, a quick trip to Treuchtlingen for shopping 🤣 it was also important to let the Herzfahrt app run at the same time😂🥰

From EIH to Treuchtlingen iss already a classic on the very well developed cycle path along the Altmühl. This time I added a few meters of altitude to get to know a few different perspectives. The wind wasn't that great....but let's not complain about the Ebike....the battery of a 625 was just about enough...returned with 11%...from 10% eat Zappo because …

Immediately after the starting point, a little above Eichstätt, this city with its medieval-residential character positively surprised me! One could spend a good time here. The upper reaches of the Altmühl meander cheerfully and playfully through the area, sharing its bed with a railway line. Cycling is great fun here! Towering Jura🦕 limestone cliffs everywhere, and the panoramic paths can …

Actually, yesterday was the last lap.
But I met friends again at the Burgstein. They climb up the rock on different difficulties, quite impressive. For an old great-grandfather, however, that's nothing more
Now it's back to 😎 🏠

This morning we visited the medieval Pappenheim Castle, an impressive complex. The Pappenheimers became famous through Schiller's epic "Wallenstein". We continued to Solmhofen, where many fossils are still being excavated and where the famous Archeopteryx was found. The impressive rock formations of the 12 apostles follow a few kilometers later. In Eichstätt, the famous prince-bishop's residence, we take a longer …
