Today it was the “Three from the Gas Station”… no, more like three men in their prime… or at least at a respectable age 😂



The tour led us along meadow and forest paths, small, easy trails toward Hillscheid, down to Hüttenmühle… then back up to Neuhäusel…



Continuing toward the Denzerheide golf course to

Do you know that feeling?

Haven’t been on the bike for a whole week — just working… and doing household chores…



My feet are tingling, my toes are itching, my hands are shaking…

Alcohol or drug withdrawal? NO! Bike withdrawal 😢



Quickly grabbed the charged-up machine out of the garage, asked my beloved partner

After a hearty Easter breakfast with our two boys, René and I headed out today onto some beautiful forest paths and trails in the woods around Höhr – it was really fun, varied, and great for building basic endurance 👍

Small hike on Easter Saturday – by the way, my 100th Komoot tour 💪 – through the local forests, a small trail between Brexbach and Eishaus up to the “duck swimming pond,” and then on toward Köppel.

Back via Flürchen, coffee and cake at Hotel Heinz, and then onward home 👍

My MTB Rhens buddy felt a bit of a “groin pull” last night – probably overdid it doing… whatever 😂

…so today’s session was man vs. inner couch potato – clear 1:0 victory for the “Old Man Biking” 👍



Got the bio-bike out of the garage, quickly adjusted the gears… and off we went: nothing spectacular… just

Out today on the e-bike with my MTB Rhens buddy Andreas.

Planning the next “training sessions”… exploring new trails for him… and just chatting nonsense 😂



What can I say: all goals checked off 😂

…and tomorrow, back to a tougher bio-bike ride 💪

On the agenda today: 2nd bio-bike tour in preparation for the Rhens Marathon. So far, so good 😎



At 3°C, I got the “bio thing” saddled up and set off…

A tough climb uphill toward Landshuber Weiher, grinding my way up the root trail—until… yes, until the stream crossing at the “four-way intersection” came

Andreas and I have a big “spring classics cycling” goal:

PARIS-ROUBAIX…💪

…well, actually more like MTB Rhens 😂… but on a regular (non-electric) bike 💪



It starts on May 31st, and by then you’re supposed to have 1,000 km in your (human-powered) legs 💪

… I’ve done 14 as of today 😂



Conclusion: looks like

The sun's shining, work can wait… so I hopped on my bike and hit some of my local trails:



First, I headed down to Grenzau, then up the trail behind the mini-golf course to the riding stables, back down to Grenzau Castle, and from there down the trail and forest paths to the Brexbach Trail 🤘
