About Martin
Endurist aus Ulm. Durch Corona 2020 zum MTB (und zu Komoot) gekommen. Gerne auf Trails insbesondere im deutschen Süden und Südwesten unterwegs. Aber natürlich auch sonstwo in Deutschland und Europa, wenn Urlaub und Wetter es hergeben und ich nicht gerade durch Fern- und Abenteuer-Reisen ohne Bike (etwa Demokratische Republik Kongo, Kambodscha, Libanon…) daran „gehindert“ bin. Ich fahre ein custom aufgebautes Conway WME Enduro mit 27,5‘‘ und 170mm Federweg und ein Propain Spindrift CF Freeride-Bike mit 190/180mm Federweg und ebenfalls 27,5’‘ Bereifung. Am liebsten naturbelassene Trails. Aber es darf auch mal Bikepark oder ein Flowtrail sein 😊Seit 2023 habe ich ergänzend nun auch ein E-Bike: Propain Ekano. Auch dieses mit 27,5‘‘ und 170mm. Daneben dokumentiere ich hier Ausflüge, Städtereisen und Wanderungen in näherer und fernerer Umgebung. Ich freue mich über Inspiration durch andere User und natürlich auch, wenn ich jemandem Ideen oder Tipps für eigene Unternehmungen mitgeben kann!

After a very stressful week and after yesterday we visited a jewelry gallery and Lexi's dad and celebrated a good friend's birthday, neither of us had much motivation to get on the bike today. Instead, I did some bike maintenance and chilled on the couch for a long time. But in the early afternoon we…

While Madame was spending a girls' weekend in Munich with her girls, I set out to check out the brand new (and not yet completely finished) Pappelau "Bike Park": just the 15-minute drive from my home was the first highlight - if you drive over Harthausen and Ermingen, today you once again had a magnificent…

We used today's holiday for a trip to the wonderful Dahner Felsenland. I've been planning to come here on an e-bike for a long time and today I treated myself to a nice ride with all sorts of hairpin bend trails: I'm slowly getting going with the heavy e-plane when I'm moving the rear wheel :-) Madame…

Today we took a short hop down the A8 to Günzburg, where the “Flow Forest” was created this summer: a small trail park with a flowline, a jumpline and an enduro line. To get there, use the Park&Ride car park near Deffingen, directly on the A8. From there it is only 2-3 comfortable kilometers to the trail…

Autumn is here and autumn is often a time for hairpin bends in or around Geislingen. “Us” didn’t apply to us today, however, as Madame is probably still a bit unfamiliar with autumn and the prospect of cooler temperatures and wet leaves caused her to explain to me this morning that she prefers to stay…

Today my sister and brother-in-law redeemed their voucher for a “mountain bike course” with me. My sister hasn't had any real bike experience at all, but in the future she wants to use the bike better for climbing ascents and descents. My brother-in-law is a bit more experienced, has already been around…

Oberammergau Day 2: While researching for yesterday's tour, I stumbled across the Oberammergau Bike Park. Strangely enough, I hadn't had it on my radar at all until now, even though it's not that bad for us in terms of traffic and my continued research also suggested that there might be a lot to offer…

Today we went from Oberammergau up to the Aufacker: we go up on forest paths - some of them pleasant to pedal, some very steep and others BRUTALLY steep and impassable - up, often with a wonderful view down into the valley. Since Madame is not yet fully fit again after her injury, she skipped the top…

We had heard a lot of good things about the two trails run by “Fahrfreuden e.V.” near Trier - reason enough to pay them a visit. We went uphill in perfect late summer weather. The first time it wasn't the official, the next few times the correct official was judged based on the posted "plans" via Komoot…

Today's tour was inspired by @jonnyduck🦆 and @MisterMayers's "El Traildorado" tour. However, that took place in August and now in November some of the trails were literally submerged in water, as streams here and there had overflowed their banks and flooded the trail - still rideable, but with a certain…
