July 13, 2025,Schnelle Polderrunde gegen den Wind

Today, a nice ride through the polders with a bit of pressure on the chain. The wind, however, becomes a treacherous companion when there's virtually no slipstream.

Still, it's very nice, as there are almost no cars on the paths/side roads, at most a few older e-bikers in pairs.
