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.

The same procedure as every year? James would turn green with envy!

At 11 a.m., the starting shot was fired at CAP for our 8-person crew. Mission: Kornelimünster! And while the weather app was still philosophizing about jackets, we preferred to take advantage of the cloudless, glorious weather and lush

The weather forecast promised a perfect day – and it was right. Early in the morning, I set off for Mariawald Abbey near Heimbach. Still dressed in layers and wearing gloves when I started, the first ray of sunshine already appeared at the train station in Linnich, increasing my anticipation.

Sometimes, all it takes is a look out the window and the right amount of spontaneity – and a completely normal Sunday turns into a small adventure.



The tour along the Erft from Horrem to its mouth in the Rhine was exactly such a moment: fresh spring green, quiet paths, impressive nature, and exciting

No April Fool's joke,

actually today the plan was just a relaxed trip to Jülich. Get new shoes, roll a bit, done.

Well… and then this weather came.

And suddenly, instead of a shopping list, I had a new tour in my head.

So a quick reality check: Legs okay, time okay – destination changed. Hello Cologne.

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
