I am increasingly finding my peace and get up completely relaxed at 8:30 am and have a large milky coffee at the Bilderbuchcafé. The day begins sunny and after a short distance I stand in front of a ⛴️ – I am back on the Elbe. The first part is beautiful, afterwards it becomes more and more urban, but

The day begins at night… yesterday's food is finding its way to my stomach 🤢.
In the morning 🌧️, I have a leisurely breakfast in the wonderful house and then lie down again. As predicted, the rain stops at 10:30 am. Since 30 km is still too little for me and the dry spell is expected to last at least

The day starts relaxed, as my ferry doesn't depart until 9:30 AM. Although I will now miss Pritzwalk due to my booking error, I'm simply glad to have found a solution and not have to ride 108 kilometers. Besides, I definitely want to go to the hotel in Neustadt.
Röbel is great by the way – less known

I have now finally made friends with Lübz… Sun in the morning, a bakery that leaves nothing to be desired. When I drive home, my long-term blood sugar level will surely have risen 😅 I just can't help myself in these bakeries. Let's go – and today finally in shorts 😎
In Plau, unfortunately – or fortunately

Lübz is really special. I ride through the town and pass a street that is completely closed because the houses there are decaying and at risk of collapse. I just thought to myself: Where have I actually ended up?
Even the accommodation – although well located – looks completely unloved and neglected both

Museum Day… oh well. Destination: the Schwerin-Mueß open-air museum. Since today's stage destination is more strategic in nature, I can take it easy. I spend almost three hours in Mueß before I even properly start.
The historic village is beautifully and faithfully preserved or reconstructed and impressively

The morning is even colder… the sun is definitely missing. Rain pants and Gore-Tex jacket serve more for warmth than for rain protection today.
On the last 17 km, it gets too steamy… pants and the thick jacket come off. Unfortunately, there are two short showers just before Schwerin. The “Nastüchli

Hamburg-Lübeck- Tag 1
Hamburg begrüsst den Tag mit sonnigen, nordisch-frischen 7 Grad … die Handschuhe sind schnell angezogen. Ok, dann folgen 30 km Radweg neben der Bundesstrasse. Nicht schön, aber gibt Kilometer 😂 Das passiert, wenn man nicht einfach den Elberadweg plant.
Aber ab Kayhude wurde es richtig 😍😍😍😍 Der Weg entlang der…

Hamburg greets the day with sunny, Nordic-fresh 7 degrees... the gloves are quickly put on. Ok, then follow 30 km of cycle path next to the federal highway. Not nice, but it makes kilometers 😂 This happens when you don't simply plan the Elbe cycle path.
But from Kayhude it became really 😍😍😍😍 The

Here we go: at 5:50 AM in pouring rain and 3 degrees… well, it can only get better. And it definitely did. The ICE arrived in Hamburg with only a two-minute delay after 9.5 hours – that's something, DB! So, straight on to the hotel by bike. I got wet after all on the last two kilometers… Quick shower

Zizers- Fürstenaubruck
Das Domleschg ist immer eine Reise wert – egal zu welcher Jahreszeit, ob zu Fuss oder mit dem Velo. Mittagessen im Casa Caminada und danach ein Café am Canovasee 😎 Schade, dass ich keine Schwimmsachen dabeihatte – bei 17 Grad wäre ein Sprung ins Wasser durchaus drin gewesen. Zurück ging’s…

On the way to the lake again 🚴♂️
Unfortunately, the Föhn only supported me as far as Buchs – afterwards, away from the Rhine dam, there were changing winds. But the route became significantly more beautiful.
Destination reached 😎
After several attempts with rather soft (and expensive) saddles, I ended

It was actually supposed to be just training preparation for my cycling holiday in 4 weeks… my injured foot, the weather and a cold have hardly allowed me to get on my bike since Mallorca. And then it was sooo beautiful 😍
Somehow I had once again ignored the notice about the closure at Walensee – until

Last day… It’s sunny and already quite warm. While packing my bags, I wonder why the charger is already in the bag – however, the idea that I haven’t even unpacked it doesn’t occur to me 😕
So, after breakfast, I have to take a coffee break to charge the battery to at least 70%. Luckily, yesterday’s stage
