On the last working day of the year, the last remaining colleagues don't even want to have breakfast together. To do this, I went to one of my favorite butchers. In this beautiful weather, the car was not an option. Probably my last bike ride in 2023. The weather forecast until the turn of the year isn't great. If I …

The Falkenstein bikes and hikes through the summer award ceremony took place today. Lo and behold, we won something. I the book 99x resin, my wife even has something like the grand prize. A knight's meal for 2 people at Burg Falkenstein. I hope she takes me with her.😅. Then swim a lap to the Easter pond and off home.

September 21, 2023,Heute war kein Glückstag

I didn't have much luck today.
1. I forgot to start Komoot (I created the tour later).
2. The bakery in Rieder is only open until 2 p.m. due to illness, so no bread 🍞
3. When I was furthest from home, my standby cell phone rang and I had to cycle home in no time.
Well, at least I …
