…..and more So this was a present from my husband. Fly to Athens have a cool week there, and fight anomaly. The anomaly – this time me without bike – went fine – lots of activity, lots of fighting, shard scoring. Just…unfortunately we lost anyways. It rained. Several of us slipped on the wet marble. No major accidents, gratefully, just…
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…
Someone had the glorious idea to have a GORUCK event in Berlin. No, not one, not two, but three GORUCK events (BASIC style) – GORUCK BASIC are events for around six hours, including plenty of rucking, plenty or PT, exhaustion, sore feet, maybe some water, and learning. Not „just“ psychologically („I think I can I think I can“) but literally…

After two years COVID restrictions and apprehensive planning, we wanted to get back to vacationing but for that virus isn’t gone and won’t be gone, soon, we decided, not to fly but to rent a house in far away Brittany, in Camaret-sur-Mer.

The store opened at 8AM, and a very friendly person who happened to speak some English, sold me a gray bolle helmet. I payed, we chatted a bit about riding through forest bike paths and all that – the store…
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…
It has been some time since I started my Paneuropa bike path project. More – it was right when we moved to Kronau and I did my long distance training, passing this little blue and yellow sign, me reading „Paneuropa bike path“ and I set my mind on riding the whole thing. Maybe even earlier, when I watched a documentary…
