It kept bothering me.
On Saturday, we did a similar route to the Dhünntalsperre (Dhünn Dam). However, the route wasn't particularly practical for our bikes.
We fed Komoot our preferences, saved them, and then set off. 💪
Sure, the first part was identical to Saturday's route. Then Komoot led us south around

A very nice tour to the other side of the Dhünn Dam. However, there were two or three sections that were very difficult to ride on our bikes.
We first cycled back along the Balkantrasse towards Bergisch Born. We then cycled along the L 68, above the Dhünn, towards the foredam. Despite it being a Sunday

We got our Pino back from the workshop on Thursday.
Tried out the repaired steering today. It's working smoothly again.
We had already done part of this tour a few years ago.
We hadn't even realized that some sections of the Wuppertal Dam were quite difficult to navigate.
In Wilhelmstal, the path is very

The return journey was planned to take me via Burg Castle. The approach to the Eschbachtal valley led past the Eschbachtal dam and

The final stage.
After a hearty breakfast, we set off on the final 70 km.
It felt like we rode 60 km into a headwind and crosswind. Our batteries were burning, and our thighs were burning.
And the last 5 km were in a rain shower.
So no photo stop. We just kept going. Of course, we needed a few short breaks

Today is the penultimate tour. From Brietlingen via Lauenburg, along the Elbe, to Boizenburg, Brekede, and Hitzacker.
This morning we couldn't believe our eyes. RAIN. We'd already pulled out our rain gear and were prepared for a wet tour. After breakfast, it gradually drier and stayed that way until Hitzacker

Today was the archaeological part of our tour. We passed some Stone Age artifacts. However, we had the feeling that some sections of the route date back to that time. If I didn't know better, I would have guessed they were old Roman trade routes. Beautiful cobblestones. However, "Romans" and "Lüneburg

Ein bisschen der Langeweile entfliehen. War schon lange nicht mehr mit dem Solorad unterwegs gewesen. Heute hab ich einige Aussichtspunkte ,im Leverkusener Süden, mit Blick nach Köln abgeradelt. Von Quettingen über Steinbüchel, Edelrath, Glöbus und Blecher dann in Richtung Burscheid. Dann auf der allseits bekannten Balkantrasse wieder nach Hause.
