Tag 2 | Oberrodenbach -> Würzburg | Von Mainz irgendwo hin
Heute Morgen bin ich um 7:40 Uhr früh losgefahren. Gegen Anfang kam ich an einer weiterführenden Schule vorbei und war positiv überrascht, kein großes Elterntaxi-Chaos vernehmen zu können😅. Die Fahrt führte mich über manche kleineren und größeren Außerorts-Straßen, was aber durchaus Spaß gemacht hat. Ungeplant kam ich auch am ehemaligen…

Tag 1 | Mainz -> Oberrodenbach | Von Mainz irgendwo hin
Nachdem der gestrige Abend lang war, bin ich heute um 11 Uhr losgefahren.
Durch Wiesbaden war die Infrastruktur teilweise nervig. Als ich da allmählich rauskam, war das ganz angenehm. Landschaftlich hat es mir dann auch gut gefallen. Irgendwann ging so langsam die Steigung in Richtung des großen Feldbergs los. Ich…

Gedenk-Demonstration für Natenom
Anlässlich des gestrigen, zweiten Jahrestags von Natenoms Tod gab es wieder eine Gedenk-Demo. Es ging los mit einer Kundgebung vor der Staatsanwaltschaft Pforzheim. Im Anschluss an diese ging die Fahrt mit den ungefähr 180 Teilnehmenden los. Ich hatte mich spontan als Ordner gemeldet. Noch in Pforzheim gab es einen Bike-Down…

ADFC-Radsternfahrt Stuttgart
Ich bin heute meine erste Radsternfahrt mitgefahren. Und auch für mich als routinierten Critical Mass-Gänger in Stuttgart war die Radsternfahrt etwas besonderes!
Ich hatte dieses Mal ganz offiziell eine Ordnerbinde am Arm und war spontan auch das Sprachrohr für unseren Ast über die Walkie Talkie-App. Nachdem wir in Weil der…

The last day of the trip, including the finale in Stuttgart.
I knew I didn't have to leave quickly in the morning, so I prepared myself for a rather late start. I would have been ready to leave around 10:00 a.m., but it was raining again. So I sat in the campground's common room and waited. I finally

Today I headed from Lake Altmühl towards Baden-Württemberg.
It seems the tour has been challenging me a bit over the past few days. Yesterday, the weather was terrible. Today, it started with me calling my intended campsite, as I hadn't received a response by email. The result: The campsite is closed

Today was the day with the worst weather of my tour.
After having to pack up the tent while it was still wet, I managed to get through the rain-free start after setting off at 8:30 a.m. But not long after that, it started to drizzle, and at some point it became clear that I'd have to put on my rain jacket

Today, with the entire ride in Germany, I finally entered the final stretch of my cycling trip.
I set off later than planned, around 9:30 a.m., at around 15°C. Therefore, I rode in long pants for the first time on my tour. However, I made good progress and completed the first 40 km with only one short

Today I continued toward the border. It was also significantly colder.
Due to the forecast of potentially prolonged rain in the afternoon, I set off at around 8:40 a.m., despite only a 90 km ride. I had a climb right at the beginning. Soon after, I passed through Pilsen. The pride in beer is certainly

After the last rest day of my tour, I left Prague today. This marks the beginning of the final section.
In Prague, I quickly descended to the Vltava River. After bypassing a bridge because I would have had to climb the stairs on my bike, I initially cycled through Prague without a view of the Vltava for

Today my ride took me to the Czech capital, Prague.
A few kilometers after leaving the station, I had to take a detour due to a road closure. This added a few kilometers to my journey. I did some shopping in Čáslav (the end of the detour), and then continued on. However, I immediately encountered another

In contrast to yesterday, the route wasn't as flat today. I crossed the Zelezné Hory Mountains.
Due to the prospect of 1,400 meters of elevation gain and a distance of 100 km, I set off early again this morning at 8 a.m. The first few kilometers were largely flat and beautiful before my navigation system

After yesterday's strenuous stage, today was fairly flat and with significantly less wind for me, about 94 km.
I deliberately set off a little later this morning, around 9:15 a.m., and I didn't keep the pace too high. Towards the beginning, I felt a bit underpowered again, but the bars pulled me out of

Today I had two border crossings to cross again. But aside from that, there was a lot more to do.
I set off early this morning again, around 8:15 a.m. From the very beginning, I had a bit of a headwind, which slowed my progress. After about 35 km, I began the only climb of the day. I crossed a small spur

Exciting! What happens next? I was once out and about in the Rhön. That was quite nice. The Kreuzberg would be something.
