Nice tour back to the Krombach dam in the Westerwald and on the railway embankment bike path from Driedorf via Schönbach and Uckersdorf. We have beautiful lakes here in our homeland. God bless my friend 🙏

Beautiful bike tour with great vantage points 👍
The way back was sometimes not so easy to drive, but the tour otherwise made up for the small shaking passage😁
How will they definitely drive again, but then in the opposite direction 🚴 ♂️🚴🏾 ♀️
