It was very windy on the descent today. For this reason, the route was changed. We rode mostly south-to-north. A few forest passages were helpful here, keeping the annoying wind at bay. From Beinheim onward, we had a favorable wind, so even the approaching drizzle posed little problem. V.R.

Today, the departure had to be postponed to 8 a.m. due to rain. This meant a shorter ride, but it was still fun. Coffee break in Steinfeld just before closing time.

A wonderful day, perfect for cycling. The magnificent view of the Haardt region, with the villages of Königsbach, Gimmeldingen, and Haardt from Meckenheim alone was worth the trip. To get a few more hills, we chose the Wine Route for the return trip, but it was already heavily congested with tourists

It was quite chilly on the way down. Only 10 degrees Celsius. You could feel the late autumn approaching. We were grateful for every ray of sunshine. Nevertheless, it was a great trip that culminated at the Steinweiler fair.

I drove to Taubensuhl for the first time in a few years. I have to say, I didn't remember it that way. I just wanted to keep going. Then a gravel road to the B 48. From there, it wasn't far to Johanniskreuz. A quick drive via Speyerbrunn to Elmstein. After the coffee break, I headed home via NW and LD.

A pleasant, steady ride through KA. Ettlingen to Malsch to our regular bakery. Afterwards, our paths parted at the Seltz Rhine ferry. Günter had an invitation in Roppenheim. Torsten and I drove through the hilly Alsace region to Schleithal to see Sepp, who, as always, treated us to wheat beer and warm pretzels.

What a wonderful moorland for cycling. The air was clean and not too warm. So we cycled to Lemberg for two and a half hours straight. There, we took a coffee break in the stylishly decorated coffee shop (see photo). We continued through narrow streets toward Eppenbrunn, passing over the easy-to-ride

It couldn't be any flatter. But somehow, no one minded, because for various reasons, everyone was still tired from the day before. We were lucky with the weather, though. Although it looked dicey a few times, we were spared the shower from above.

You only have to watch the Tour de France more often and you'll start thinking about achieving something greater. So, we tackled the Kalmit River again. In the morning coolness, this section of the route was easy to manage. After the descent to Maikammer, we were able to afford a coffee break at the

Once again, we rode our friend Andreas Machate's favorite route. Wait. That's not entirely true. We're extending the tour in all sorts of directions these days. This time, we went via Hassloch and Geinsheim toward home. It was a fantastic ride with no notable events. Worth mentioning is the finale at
