Today I cycled the loop via Wuppertal again.....one of my favorite tours. There are plenty of altitude meters and work for the legs. Took a longer break on the Nordbahntrasse with a cold drink and small talk....only the young people with the illegal scooters and pedal-less bikes, that has become really

Hello....
When I got on my bike at noon today, I had no plan where to go. First through the Ruhrauen in Mülheim and then on along the Rhein-Herne Canal.... past the Gasometer and Zauberlehrling.... the idea to ride up to the Tetraeder again matured in me. Up there you have a panoramic view of our ,,Kohlenpott

Hello....
I heard on the radio that the Regionalverband Ruhr has set up a Tiny House on the Hoheward slag heap for a week. It is inhabited during this time by a young man who was selected from under 1000 applicants..... his tasks are: to observe the sunrise and herd the robo-sheep.... I would have taken

On what is probably the last warm summer day, I cycled a familiar route to familiar places. Cycling through the green belt from Mülheim to the fields near Wittlaer is wonderful. The beer garden ,,Aschlöksken" was surprisingly closed. Past the castle ruins of Kaiserswerth, it then quickly heads towards

The legs wanted movement.... Cycling was not an option due to the heavy rain. So, put on the rain jacket and walked down to the Ruhr. This weekend, an annual dragon boat race is taking place there. Tough participants who train in wind and weather to compete with others on days like these. Right next

Today I cycled to Düsseldorf.... the route is quite decent to ride, predominantly asphalt. Except for a few kilometers independent of car traffic. Took a break at the Fortuna Bude, a bit of small talk and a cold drink.... after that, I went over to the other side of the Rhine to Meerbusch, crossed the

Hello....
This morning I heard on the radio that there is a VW Bus ,,Bulli" festival at the Auesee in Wesel with participants from all over Europe. Since I also once had a T2 with Westfalia equipment, I wanted to take a look there. It would have been better to go there on Saturday, today many participants

My plan for today was finally to ride the completed Springorumtrasse....it was a good idea, because the path there alone is already worth seeing. Past the Ruhr and the Railway Museum....it costs admission, so just a picture through the fence. Then I reached the Springorumtrasse....really good to ride

Took advantage of the pleasant weather today to cycle along the Rhine to Düsseldorf... you can take a very good break at the Rheinblick campsite, they have a beer garden with reasonable prices. There's always something going on in Düsseldorf... the promenade was bursting with people. Lingered a bit at

After important errands, there was still time for a proper round.... I decided on the Baldeneysee. However, this time the other way around via Kettwig and back via the Grugatrasse..... a different view. Only the towpath between Kettwig and Essen Werden is even worse in the reverse direction than in the

Today I cycled to Düsseldorf to the Königsallee. All day long, city championships all around cycling took place there. From balance bikes to kids' road bikes, juniors and folding/collapsible bikes, cargo bikes and amateurs M/F. In the afternoon, the elite started.....there were really good ones among

Hello
Today I rode a tour that was still on my list for this summer....Berg en Dal.
Located right next to Nijmegen, you pass quiet side streets, first by really beautiful old houses, before the first climbs begin. Through green landscapes and wonderfully fragrant pine forest, it goes up and down over
