Beautiful Tuesday today. Bright
sunshine and just some cumulus clouds hovering in the back making for
some dramatic scenery.
Was early than Nico today and did a few
turns in front of the drive. He arrived after some circles and we set
of towards Gschwend. Nico dropped his chain some time near the
beginning but managed to get it on after a while. Through Gschwend
overtaking a horse on the way. Through Reichenbach and then up it
went. Nico being a tic faster than me but he stayed with me. Up past
the Haslacher Alm and then to the interesting part, steep uphill
cycling on gravel. Managed all the way for the first time and had one
photo stop. Arriving at the Reuterwanne we saw some other bikers
coming down along cow tracks, turned out to be Martin Herz and two
other bikers.
After that the first downhill part on
ruff stone, but then strait uphill again. We came out at one of the
best views I know in the are, last time I was there was about two
years prior to date and I had wanted to come back more than once.
Finishing our photographic session we went downhill, the wrong way I
wanted to go but still fun. Nico reaching a top speed of 75 km/h down
a long tarmac road.
Back through Wertach seeing a radar
trap of the police. We were then wondering if we could get caught on
bikes.
Along the Grüntensee with some head
wind and then back home through Maria Rein and the Wertachtal. Some
Japanese people on the way back and of course a lot of pictures were
made.
Time in saddle: 2 hours 10 min
Distance: 29.7 km
