  • Beautiful training ride to the Einkorn

    Today I cycled my old training route from Schwaebisch Hall via Gaildorf and the old coal road to the Einkorn back home.

    I started right after the rain and it was just beautiful to watch the water evaporate from the forest.

    I would have loved to stop every other minute to take a picture BUT I had to be back for lunch time, so I didn’t take too many breaks 😉

    So – „unfortunately“, you have to come here in person to see the whole beauty 🙂

    In case, you’re wondering about the strange picture format: today I had only my phone with me and not my camera.

    Also the route parameters are, once again, calculated by OpenStreetMaps and don’t really seem realistic to me – just subtract generously and it’s probably correct 😉

    View from the Einkorn – I just love it here 🙂

    Thursday was another holiday and another predicted hot day with thunderstorms and heavy rains predicted for later in the day. Consequence for me: another early start. This time I was on the road already at 7 AM!!! and it was already warm.

    Since it was a holiday, almost nobody was on the streets and I found my way easily out of Heilbronn.

  • From Karlsruhe to Heilbronn

    It was predicted to be another hot day and my calculated route would be around 90 km, including some meters in elevation. So I started the day with only a very small breakfast (only one dry bread roll….yummie ;-)) ) and veeeeeery early: I was on the road by 7 AM.

    Hills on the left, hills on the right – and I’m just cycling downhill 🙂

    What a beautiful day / ride

    I started early, around 8 AM, because it was suppose to get warm again. I started off through the beautiful forest of the Pfaelzer Wald and the whole first ten kilometers were going downhill on a beautiful smooth cycling road.
