Absolutely low-traffic residential road with a slight incline through the middle of the forest. Insider tip among racing cyclists, if you don't want to take the busy, fast-paced country road through the Köpperner Tal.

Traveled with a different driver today.

We relaxed and enjoyed the beautiful weather but also accelerated every now and then. A very nice tour.

As soon as we got home it started to rain 🌧️

I was really lucky 😁
At one point I really thought I wouldn't be able to stay dry.


Conclusion: it went perfectly 😁 👍
