May 7, 2022,07.05.2022 - Pirminiusweg Hornbach (kleine Runde)

07.05.2022 walked the Pirminiusweg. we ran the 14 km route. (There is also a 25 km route)

Nice relaxed ride ☺️ on wide paths. Great weather, lots of mosquitoes in the forest, so we abandoned the first rest stop in a panic... then found a cosy spot for a rest by the lake... lots of riders out and about today... stopped off at the monastery... 👍🥳
