Spontaneous, joint gravel tour with @Henning.BU and stop at the Eis Café Monika in Wettmar.
Great🤗, Henning recognized me yesterday at Aldi as a Komoot user and approached me, quickly clarified addresses and directly went on tour together today 👌

Day 18, the way to the ÖBB-Nightjet booked for 8:30 PM from Landeck to Innsbruck.
Start already shortly after 8 AM, as from 2 PM the weather apps unanimously "promised" showers and thunderstorms for the whole afternoon. Therefore, we didn't build in any "detours", but literally cycled the designated Inntal

Immediately after breakfast and a few meters, the steep ascent follows on a great separate bike path near the Adige river to the Reschen Pass with

Day 16, early start around 8 am from the hotel in Bormio.
We inquired several times during the planning phase whether the tour - especially the technical MTB section of the Via Val Mora trail with luggage and gravel bike - was possible.
Even the komoot entries about it didn't really help, the statements

Day 15, today it's only one way, uphill from Tirano on the beautifully laid out Sentiero Valtellina cycle path to Bormio. The route again led wonderfully along the Adda river. Short distance, tough altitude gain.
We start early, as heavy rain with thunderstorms is forecast for around 2 PM (they arrived

We start around 9 am in still overcast but very sultry weather with 27°. However, the sun quickly reappears (10 am: 35°, 2 pm: 41°). I'm sunprotected with arm + leg warmers 🙃, not

Day 13, health is improving and we continue, no more painkillers😃 only antibiotics 👍.
Breakfast in the garden right on Lake Lugano, at a maximum distance of 3m a heron as a "pole guest".
Initially along the beautiful shore road with great tunnel bypasses to Porlezza, where we said goodbye to Lake Lugano

Day 12, actually you can't top the previous stages, but today's tour from Lake Maggiore to Lake Lugano has somehow managed to top them 😍.
What a dreamlike landscape, the views and the blue-green shining water nestled in the towering mountains made this tour indescribably beautiful.
Great spots line up

Day 11, in the January travel planning for today, an extra short tour along Lago Maggiore was planned to get to know and enjoy the flair of the Lombard shore by bike. Even though the cycle path along the shore mainly ran on the SP69 and towards the end on the SS394, the traffic on Saturday morning was

A nice idea with visiting a friend in Letter/Seele is a great combo.
The tour goes almost exclusively on car-free or low-traffic roads and paths (exception: the route from Seelze to Gümmer 🙈 there/back).
On the way there, first on a shady forest stretch towards Hannover, then following the Mittellandkanal
