Aufgrund meines hartnäckigen Grünten-Muskelkaters😀, gab es heute morgen nur einen kleinen Willkommens-spaziergang vor die Haustüre.... zu unserem kleinen Weiher, am Gasthof Kreuz vorbei (sie Heimatkunde unten) und zur La Salette Kapelle

A brief history of the Gasthof Kreuz (Cross Inn) below the La Salette Chapel on Fuchsberg:
In 1857, when Father Steigmaier fell seriously ill, he vowed that if God granted him recovery, he would build a chapel on Fuchsberg. Thus, the present-day La Salette Chapel was built in 1864 and consecrated in 1866

The only day of the week when the persistently sunny high-pressure system took a break...
But a plan is a plan; a total of six of us—@Karl Roth, @Thomas Lacher, @Thoreau, @Joe, Martin, and I—accepted Karl's invitation for this year's end-of-year hike up the Grünten mountain 😃👍🏼

Erstaunlich was man alles in Reichweite der Heimat finden kann, an Pilgerorten, heiligen Staetten oder spirituellen Plätzen wo die Menschen Kraft und Vergebung suchen.

The Stations of the Cross in Merazhofen were built through a private donation and a support association; the grave of the blessed Father Hieber is visited by countless believers seeking help. The lawn cross in Meggen, a supernaturally created ground image of a cross, has existed since 1972, apparently

On the way, I stopped at a memorial bicycle for a deceased cyclist near Altmannshofen. You have no chance when you're in a truck's blind spot.
We cyclists don't get airbags or bumpers, and sometimes we don't get any consideration at all. Take care.

Nutze die Gelegenheit bei dem schönen Wetter auch wenn die Oberschenkel schon im Tiefschlaf des Winters sind. Schön aber auch anspruchsvoll war es.

That was my 34th tour of more than 100 km... and that will probably be it for 2025. I don't base my satisfaction with the sporting year on any specific numbers, but 34 is definitely an indicator of a good year.

Take a cold, sunny Sunday and garnish the morning with a 2500-meter swim with 32 swimming buddies. As a mid-morning aperitif, enjoy a wheat beer and some banter at the regulars' table before the second course: a delicious lunch with the best wife ever. An hour of snuggling up on the sofa with a good

Der Riedbergpass ist der höchste Gebirgspass in Deutschland mit 1407 m und mit 16-17% Steigung auch einer der steilsten. Ich finde ihn nicht wirklich schön, meine letzte Auffahrt war vor 15 Jahren. Und so wollte ich ihnen bei diesen schönen November Temperaturen mal wieder besuchen, werde doch einen gewissen Nimbus hat.

I started in Siebratshofen at 10 a.m. in 3°C weather. Then I cycled over the Zaumberg to Burgberg for a coffee break. I was quite apprehensive about the climb to the Riedberg Pass – it's really steep, but the roads are in excellent condition. The truly beautiful views only appear on the descent. Because

Nach diesem schönen Tag heute muss ich mal wieder meinen alten Fahrradkumpel Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) bemühen und zitieren: "ich ging in die Wälder (oder zum Radfahren in die Berge.) weil ich bewusst leben wollte. Ich wollte das Mark des Lebens einsaugen, um nicht an meinem Todestag inne zu werden dass ich nicht gelebt habe!" Ja und ich habe heute gelebt bewusst und intensiv.

This morning at 9 a.m. in my hometown, it was foggy and -1.5°C. Not exactly cycling weather, but I trusted the forecast and rode the 25 km to Buchenberg. There, it was an incredible 9°C and brilliant sunshine. Along the Iller River, in the shadow of the Grünten mountain, I continued via Burgberg to Hindelang
