Great tour in changeable weather. The 9 km around the lake are flat and paved, so easy to do without E⚡ and suitable for young cyclists. The adventure park is around two km from the lake...highly recommended! 👍

Picked up my wife's Isy at the Radhaus in Büren today. Circuit had to be repaired. Then we went on a lap around the dam. Everything great again.

The aurochs have had offspring. The cows a little further also had little calves with them, which were quite funny :-)

Went to lead washing with Pepino again today to get eggs. Then we did another lap around the dam and made a small film with the drone.
Have fun with it.

If you like it, give me a thumbs up. I would be happy about comments.
