When ingress announced the sites for the 2023 anomalies, I thought, I’d get to Reims and that’s it. Then I got an Athens trip as a gift – and after rucking in Athens I kind of had to figure out how to go to Oslo or Madrid. Flying for a pixel-in-scanner game… yes I flew to Rome for a weekend,…
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,…
…..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…

Not „just“ psychologically („I think I can I think I can“) but literally…
Fifty (or so) shades of sky……

Car packed, and we went our merry ways West, and farther West, avoiding tollways, until we reached Velizy,…
Riding 20km. After all those days. Meeting a couple who took a similar route on a different bike path – bound to Ulm, on their non electric bikes – making Ulm in two days or three. The guy I talked to probably around 70 years old. wow! I had some nice landscape to cover, just to have village skylines emerge…
The next morning I got a delicious breakfast in my Stribro pension, and then set off to buy a helmet. 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…
