Today is the last stage of our tour. We have included a few small passes in this tour. From Pernitz we go straight into the climb "on the neck" without warming up. It's nice that we have a "roller hill" here, which also serves as a warm-up. The descent is beautiful and after a few "muggles" we turn off

The weather forecast is mixed and has worsened. So today we're only doing a shorter tour. We're planning to start a little later (around 11 a.m.), because by then the rain should at least be over. It actually rains during breakfast. As we're loading the bike, the sun comes out and as we set off it starts

The weather forecast for today is bad and Monika has replanned the route as a precaution. Mürztal and no passes should be possible even in a thunderstorm.

It actually starts to rain during breakfast. But from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. it looks good.

We start our rest day stage with wet roads and the beginning

Today is the perfect day to ride a few passes. We left Eastern Styria yesterday and are now in Upper Styria. The region here is also called Almenland. And the weather forecast for today is perfect too. So let's go! And we'll do it right from the start. Without warming up or warming up, we head straight

Today we're going from Lower Austria to Styria. But first we have to face two small challenges: one km slightly uphill on gravel; then 3.5 km downhill on bad asphalt with grit. Both go quite well and we're already in Styria at the edge of Mönichskirchen. We make rapid progress on a beautiful approach

Today is the first complete stage with the first pass. First we go back to Baden through the Helenental valley. Then comes a long "dry stretch" through the towns of Bad Vöslau and Wiener Neustadt. We are glad when these are behind us and we leave Wiener Neustadt on a detour on the thermal spa cycle path

We set off on our first bikepacking tour with a half-day "rolling in" to the Helenental. Before that, we watched Waiting for Godot with friends. The sky is cloudy in the morning and the forecast says there could be thunderstorms. We don't start until 3:30 p.m. Clouds are still there, but they look quite

The last Quäldich pass in "Vienna" has been on the agenda for a long time: the Jubiläumswarte. And today we are going to do the climb. We start earlier than yesterday. The weather forecast is good. The journey to the Jubiläumswarte requires a little imagination, as it is not advisable to drive through

The plan was to ride to Sieghardskirchen. But already on the Danube there is a slight refreshment from above. Nice in the warmth. But the dark clouds in our direction make us doubt whether the refreshment will last. In Steinriegl we change our plans and ride in the direction of the blue sky, the serpentines
