Just in time for the start of the Quäldich Provence trip, I caught a flu infection. I had skipped the prologue on Friday to take it easy. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough, because on Sunday I had to pass when I went to the Gorges de la Nesque. Nothing worked. Yesterday the spirits slowly came back…

... no desire for reckless drivers. After yesterday's bike break, I feel like going outside after work. The sky is slightly overcast, a bit humid - but still pleasant for a bike ride. A lap around the home town is always possible - even if there is not too much time for a long lap in the evening.

In a week we're leaving for Provence and then the Mont Ventoux Challenge is ahead of us. A bright blue sky (yes, a few little clouds decorate it 😉) after the last cloudy days literally calls for a pleasure tour. With the gravel we go through the vineyards - finally Erni & Illi finish again. A good cappuccino…

The 1st of May does not promise sunny weather - but it is dry and sometimes the sun peeks through the clouds. Past the Lörzweiler Königsstuhl to the red slope. The vines are already showing their certificates and the 2022 vintage can come.

Today Friday was not a "free" day. After the urgent things at work were done, the short but nice gravel tour was an ideal way to start the weekend.

The weather is not great but acceptable. Today it's supposed to be Hadersfeld again - the climb from Greifenstein. With a light tailwind, we quickly get to the power station. Then crossing and we're on the climb. It goes up quickly. The legs play along today. There's a new PR in the sack upstairs. The…

Today our route leads north of Murau. We start cum tempere - initially flat along the Mur to Frojach and then to Katsch an der Mur. This is where our first ascent begins - the Hinterburger saddle. A small road with little traffic leads the 5 km long route up the Hinterburgergraben. The murmur of a small…

Today a bit of pass hunting on the climbs in the south of Murau is announced. The Talbacher, Perchauer and Neumarkter saddles and the Kleine Tauernbründl are quickly put in a good order. From Murau you first head in the direction of Laßnitz over the Talbacher saddle to St. Lambrecht and St. Blenden…

Today is the last tour on the program. Since I still want to ride Mont Ventoux, I unfortunately have to forego the ride with the group today. The Mont Ventoux is clearly ahead, when I'm already here and the challenge on Tuesday had to be canceled for me.
Well: this morning I decide not to drive the easy…
