Always straight ahead! The cycle path is perfectly developed to Bamberg and is easy to ride even with a lot of luggage. Almost a bit boring, but the view is nice 🚴☀️🌲

October 17, 2021,4. 🚲Ausfahrt der 🌀GAGAisten🌀>>> Bad Staffelstein/Oberfranken <<<

Today some Komootler met again - this time in Bad Staffelstein - to make the Upper Franconian area pretty unsafe with their wire "E" seln.

A new, very exciting meeting of people with like-minded "love❤to❤cycling" who have never met in real life before.

October 17, 2021,🌀GAGA🌀#4 – Bad Staffelstein Runde

Who gets up voluntarily at 5 a.m. at night, foggy and cold?
Probably just someone who is completely GAGA🌀.

Armin and Sylvia want to do a round in Upper Franconia from Bad Staffelstein around 11 a.m. And it's a point of honor to be there, even with a damaged paw.
