Wetzelaer

Als die Stützräder von meinem kleinen Drahtesel abfielen und ich das erste Mal im Gleichgewicht glücklich durch die Gegend rollte, war klar: Das Fahrrad und ich – Liebe auf den ersten Blick! Deswegen bedeutet Radfahren für mich nicht nur Mobilität, sondern ist gleich dreimal gesund – für unsere Umwelt, für einen selber und für alle anderen auch! Ich atme auf der Straße lieber die Abgase von 10 Radfahrerenden ein als von einem SUV. Wir brauchen mehr Diensträder als Dienstautos, mehr Fahrradwege als Autobahnen und wir können nicht durch die Pendlerpauschale belohnen, dass Autos im Stau stehen. Das Fahrrad ist mir heute immer noch treu und ich kann nicht ohne, es ist ein fester Bestandteil meines Lebens, denn als Alltagsradler mache ich jede Strecke, die ich kann auf zwei Rädern - egal ob‘s regnet oder schneit. Daran wird sich auch in Zukunft nichts ändern. Ich radle weiter – mit reiner Muskelkraft. Natürlich sind Autos nicht mehr wegzudenken, aber seien wir ehrlich: Wie oft ist es eigentlich nur Trägheit, dass wir das Fahrrad nicht benutzen? Ich versuche so oft es geht aufs Rad zu steigen.

Besides my vertical Valentine's Day tour, I also wanted to do something special on the biggest Rhineland holiday.



The muscle soreness from the tour and yesterday's Corralitos-hopping hadn't quite disappeared yet – but oh well: use it or lose it. So, it was time to get the mountain bike out again.

This morning I was up and ready to go early – the weather was still hazy, the wind noticeable. Perfect conditions for a quick hike… but not quite as you might think 😉



I headed up to Pico del Zarza, the highest point on Fuerteventura. Conquering a real 8,000-meter peak (in decimeters!) on Valentine's

Today we met for a bike tour to Paffendorf Castle. Twelve of us set off from Baesweiler Sports Park promptly at 10:30 a.m. Hats off to everyone who dared to take on the tour in temperatures around 15 degrees Celsius and a cloud cover!



In the autumnal weather, we cycled through Siersdorf, Dürboslar, and

Today was finally the day!

As planned, we set off promptly at 7:30 a.m. with eight people and our van and trailer for the grand Walcheren tour. Equipped with everything April weather demands, we expected rain and wind – but instead, we were surprised by bright sunshine, which immediately put us in a good

Even the approach suggested that something extraordinary was about to happen: hundreds of cyclists and pedestrians made their way together to the opening ceremony for the A544 / Haarbachtal Bridge. Where only heavy goods vehicles usually circulate, information booths and clear roadways today invited

A 44.4 km Büdchen marathon for the 1,111th tour – that's classy, that's carnival for the whole year.

Each stop also has its own story:

• "Rhein Büdchen"

• "Matrosen Büdchen"

• "Oma liebt dich": a direct feeling of home

• "Et Biermuseum": a mandatory stop

• "Bickendorfer Büdchen" and

• "Engels Eck": Cologne

The weather app wanted to convince us to wear jackets, but the sunshine had other plans. So we took it easy via Siersdorf, Schleiden, and the railway line to Hoengen.



The route continued via Begau and Merzbrück, before we experienced

We cycled over the Lousberg to Herzogenrath and through the charming Broichbach Valley back to Carl-Alexander Park, where we spent the day in style. Conclusion: Everyone was happy and content
