There’s a song by Manfred Siebald – him asking her if she’s really really going away on travels again. Somehow this Summer feels like that. I have booked a trip with my sister – elective sister. This time it is not Vlissingen. This time it is Ambleteuse, France. Just because we stumbled through the maps of various apartment rentals along…
So, first post-paneurope trail done They are different, somehow – while Paneuropa wasn’t marked everywhere, same as Eurovelo 12, the px was more accurate with Paneuropa. Long diagonal lines when there are actually curvy streets – that does confuse. Especially when checking all the time if I am still on track.That was super annoying. And does delay for it falsifies…
Sorry, guys at Mammutmarsch.de – for me this is my old home – Wiesbaden – the city where I grew up, where I went to school, where I went swimming – to the playgrounds, Where we scouts were meeting up in Dambachtal. Where Burg Sonnenberg was a standard destination to walk to – passing by even more playgrunds. Sorry, guys,…
So, I finished my Pan Europe Bike Path. Meaning there is a void which has to be filled. So, I also started real intense work getting digital stuff into German schools – demanding a lot of me. So, I did not do any endurance sport, besides of some rucking and hiking challenges, but no serious running, cycling, swimming. So I…

For last night my airmatress had lost air – was kind of empty, I unpacked the newer nobler version this time,…

Gruenau, yesterday, this day I first found the towns of Suess (sweet), Ottensoos, Pommelsbrunn, Lauf, Hammer What makes people name their villages? Why would my village be named „hammer“ I got a delicious breakfast at my place, Whatever, on my merry way along the B14 road, with a few excursions to the side. I knew I wanted to hit Nuremberg…
This is more or less a hostel – a bed, plus facilities to clean up,, It was good I had packed towel and soap (always good to know where your towel is) but I could not get breakfast. On the other hand, I didn’t mind setting off and searching for some local bakery or cafe en route. When I was…
oul. I heard them partying all night, through the window of my room.This trip was planned to be somewhat open ended. If I rode slower, I could append a day or two. That’s why I did this in the vacation time. But then – each additional day adds costs for lodging, food, etc.I was not sure if I could manage…
