The question tormented me: Where should the next round go?
Shortly before, I had read the exact same question in the comments on @Steffen143.
A reassuring moment. So I wasn't alone in this fate.
So Komoot was consulted again. The result was a route that I have indeed ridden many times before, but not without

Yesterday went well. So, actually, nothing spoke against a repeat.
After the drive through the "vineyard" near Mainz-Kostheim, the Rhine was first crossed between Mainz-Kostheim and Gustavsburg.
Shortly thereafter, I was already on a wonderful cycle path directly on the Rhine.
By the way, the ice cream

After the successful comeback two days ago, we went out on two wheels through the countryside again today.
Before the actual deployment, however, a necessary intermediate cooling of the lower jaw was first planned for safety reasons.
For this purpose, the ice cream machine at Steindamm in Trebur was approached

It was supposed to be a relaxed ride.
Without much strain.
After all, I had asked a good friend for help two days earlier regarding a supposedly minor crown problem. However, upon closer inspection, this developed into a full-blown construction project with a planned demolition. The crown was to be removed

Yesterday, Miriam asked me how I liked the Rheinland-Pfalz-Runde.
In the same breath came the question: "If you like, you can accompany us for a bit tomorrow."
Micha is cycling to Rosenheim, Miriam wants to stay overnight in Tauberbischofsheim and start her journey home the next day.
I was, of course, immediately

Today I rode a loop from @Pellehetzerin 🚲 (Miriam).
The area south of Laubenheim had previously been more of a blank map for me. Entirely undeservedly, as it turned out.
The complete loop led to the Rhine ferry near Nierstein and ran predominantly on cycle paths and farm tracks. Consequently, the usual

Yesterday was supposed to be a rest day.
Well... almost a rest day. Because the request was made to me to get So_Nia's new racer ready to ride.
So I spent some time in my home bike workshop.
You know the drill by now:
- Chain off
- Degrease in the ultrasonic bath
- Into the hot wax bath
- Mount bottle

On the bike shortly after seven in the morning. After all, it was going to get a good bit hotter again over the course of the day.
Initially, the temperatures were still extremely pleasant. Only the rush hour traffic disturbed the idyll a little. But somehow employees have to get to their place of work

Nidda loop. Relaxed, little traffic and pleasingly lots of shade along the Nidda.
Overall completely unspectacular, but wonderfully peaceful and pleasantly quiet. Even the herons on the river seemed to be of the opinion that nobody needed to rush today.
Since there were unfortunately no ice cream machines

To avoid the "Cycling in the Steamer" agenda item, I actually managed to start a bit earlier today.
What can I say? It was surprisingly pleasant. A pleasant 24 degrees provided an almost ideal working climate on two wheels.
Only the commuter traffic was a bit more pronounced than usual.
At this point, I

It was so hot (Mi Mi Mi) that I didn't even manage to take a photo.
Did something happen?
Well, the usual madness.
At the exit of Eppstein, I obediently stop at a red light. Yes, I always stop at red lights. Well, mostly anyway.
While I'm standing there waiting for the traffic light to finally take pity

Today, a joint excursion with @So_Nia was on the agenda.
Together we went north, through the old town of Idstein and then past Storck.
By the way, a Storck was definitely among the top contenders when looking for a new bike. In the end, however, the Cube convinced me more.
And if Biniam Girmay can win a

A message from Luciano suddenly fluttered in:
"Fancy a coffee stop at Etappe Roasters on the Main?"
The decision took about 2.5 seconds. Only the space-time calculation took a little longer.
Of course!
So today we went to the Main again. Near Höchst, we crossed it via the old factory bridge, then upstream
