Last June, I reported that the trail had become boring due to excessive straightening, and in other sections, it was so overgrown with nettles and brambles that it was practically unrideable. I haven't ridden that trail since.
Now, after winter, I wanted to check out the trail's condition, hoping that

No, this time it wasn't the police in their pickup trucks who ruined my bike tour, it was a slipped disc!
It happened Friday evening, when I was really looking forward to the ride. Completely unexpected. I just bent over for a second and...ouch! I could barely stand up.
With the pain in my lower back

As great as January was for biking last year, this year it was a complete washout! Yes, you could put on studded tires and ride on icy roads, but the risk of slipping is still quite high. It's better to go skiing, because skis are built for snow, bikes less so.
However, the above-freezing temperatures

After having to shorten last weekend's tour due to icy trails in the upper section, this time I planned the route to primarily stay in the lower part of the Leitha Mountains. All the trails there were easily rideable!
It was still exciting, though, because right at the start I took a path that wasn't

After the tour on the border trail at the beginning of December, the Shadowcat was so filthy that it needed a thorough cleaning/service. So I spent the last three weeks disassembling the bike down to the frame and suspension fork, cleaning it, re-greasing it, and reassembling it. Now the bike purred

After last weekend's rather strenuous tour in the Leitha Mountains, I only wanted to do a short loop this time and thought the wind farm behind Neusied/Gols/Mönchhof would be perfect – perfect.
However, the ground conditions were no better than in the Leitha Mountains. It was particularly dirty where

The goal of the tour was to find a route from Donnerskirchen to Eisenstadt that's easier to ride than the "border trail" between Lower Austria and Burgenland, which is also part of the long-distance hiking trail 02. This easier option does exist, namely at the foot of the Leitha Mountains. I've ridden

Under ideal winter touring conditions, I explored the area west of Donnerskirchen. The temperature was 3°C, there was no wind, and the ground was soft but not muddy. The first section of the trail I took already showed strong signs of becoming overgrown. It was still rideable, but some brambles snagged
