March 19, 2022,Trail-Tour: Mörlenbach Mb 1

Actually again more of a panoramic tour. But because of the trail sections, I leave it at a trail tour. Very nice views. I bypassed the most difficult section on the Tromm.
Here is the tour description

Hats off to anyone who drives this tour without a motor.

It is a beautiful, but also a demanding tour. I drove this for the first time. There are two sliding pieces in it for biobikers. I would do the Trommabfahrt differently. The downhill was too hard for me. It is in Komoot as an …

November 16, 2024,Mörlenbach’s MB1 Trail. ➡️ Die “aus 6 mach 3” Tour🤔😄

The Mb1 trail route had been on the agenda for a while. Today it finally worked out👍

Actually, 6 participants were planned. In the end there were 3 of us, so @Helius FFM and @karly52 were there.

Halfway through we had a lunch break in the Rebstock deep in the Mumbach Valley. And that's where the drop-outs from the tour …

an uphill section to push, steep, leaves on damp ground.
The downhill trail from the Tromm was too steep for me and extended = push.
Otherwise a beautiful, long, round through autumn forest!

Today's tour in the Odenwald with 47 KM and 1,240 meters in altitude was close to my limit. Even with 2 breaks, the tour was really exhausting, a real challenge for us organic bikers. All the others we saw were electric, apparently nobody wants to really challenge themselves anymore🤔
