We were going to leave a week ago, but life interfered. Now my parent’s flat in Fischbachau is sold and the furniture we and Alex wanted moved out. On top of everything my leather saddle ripped yesterday, after 35 years of stalwart service on two different bikes, and many thousands of km supporting me. So … Read more
After very long discussions in the morning and intense study of the weather forecast and rain radar, we decided to cycle to the nearest S-Bahn Station and go home by train. Please see the overview map of what we cycled in the week, not much of a plan behind it, but at least after the … Read more
The morning started misty, at noon it changed into greyness. And about 2km before our accommodation it actually started raining. Some of the route out of Augsburg seemed familiar, up to the 13% climb in Friedberg – but this time we were lucky: a local dog walker suggested a different route, eminently more cyclable. Today … Read more
Did not get really wet today, but it was spitting at times. Enjoyed the cycling very much, as it really was not hilly, and the fairly strong wind came from the side. In the meantime it is quite autumnal. It was very interesting to see how many reservoirs there are along this bit of the … Read more
It had obviously rained very recently, but we set off without rain and only got wet on the last few metres of the day. Quite undulating in the beginning, but bearable. We vaguely planned to have our first break in Schongau, but could not find anywhere there. I did not like the place, too many … Read more
A lot of climbing between Nesselwang and Füssen after our late start. It became very obvious, that flatter alternatives were possible and would have been easy, but the designers of the route apparently had e-bikes in mind. This was acknowledged by the tourist information in Füssen, where we had our first break. During this break … Read more
It did not rain, but the headwind was stronger than forecast. My legs were tired from the day before, it all made for a strenuous day with the nearly 700m climbed. Started from Oberstaufen in the mist/high clouds and cycled along a valley and the Alpsee to Immenstadt, where we had our first break and … Read more
It rained and poured all day. We borrowed some brollies from the hotel, went into town and had breakfast in a bakery. Allegedly we were then the first visitors at the garden show (Landesgartenschau), which we walked through from North to South. Right from the beginning our bike ride was quite hilly, at the end … Read more
Wanted to take the S-Bahn in to the main station to catch the train to Memmingen, just to find out shortly before departure time that there was a problem at Ostbahnhof. So we cycled in and saw this amazing rainbow. We missed our intended train by one minute and just took the next one. The … Read more
Good night’s sleep on a very firm mattress, great view in the morning. Very unspectacular bike ride to the S-Bahn station at Altomünster, flat at the beginning, hilly from about half way. Managed to buy the particular dish of Neuburg, a Wiener sausage in Brezen-dough, which we had as lunch on the S-Bahn.
