Before what will probably be a spooky weekend, I took the classic car for a quick spin.
I went to the Selfkant region to the Saeffeler Bach stream, which is currently swollen with rain due to the heavy downpours.
These days, there's a first-class path along the stream, but just 100 years ago, it was a

As everyone knows, everything's over on Ash Wednesday.
🔚
Not just "Fastelovend" (Carnival), but also the lousy
weather.
Even if only for one day. 😅 Reason enough for a trip through nature.
🙅♂️And since many had to go back to work 👊, I mostly drove on country lanes.
Apart from a few minor difficulties

On a day like today, you have to be careful not to get caught up in the village carnival parades.
🤡🥳 (1. Talk and 2. Broken glass) 🍻🍾🥂
That's why I often used country lanes.
However, there were also an unusually large number of
💩 shortcut cars on them.
If I had gotten 5 stars for every motorized 🐒

through the various nature reserves between Roermond and Mönchengladbach.
Partly along busy roads, partly through the countryside.
It drizzled a bit ☔️☔️ along the way.
Cleaning🧽🧼 is practically mandatory these days.

Today the weather was glorious again, with plenty of sunshine. A little ride was in order.
So I cycled around Geilenkirchen to the Übach market square and then took a short detour through Landgraaf (NL).
The roads were once again filthy.
🙄
So, I had to mop them again when I got home.
No one can complain

The weather forecast played a trick on me this morning. 😜
🫥 Instead of sun, there was fog and it was freezing cold again. 😰 It wasn't until around noon that the fog 🍵 slowly lifted, it got warmer and then really lovely. 🤠

Trip to the Carboniferous region to see the "iron dinosaurs" 🦕
of coal mining.
Explored some new trails near Oberembt and Niederembt. While scenic, they were extremely dirty.
🤦♂️ I felt like I picked up all the dirt at Sophienhöhe. 😛 Several sections are only recommended in dry weather. 😩 I had

@wolfben I can only confirm that. And by the water, or rather at our lakes, it felt one or two degrees colder. The damp fog today was also quite something.

Gravel ride along the Rur River.
On the way there, more or less always directly along the water.
The starting point was at the weir near Karken and led to the oxbow lake near Brachelen.
Beyond Hilfarth, it was quite muddy in places 😅 and therefore extremely strenuous. 🥵 I had to dodge tree felling a few times. 🫡
