The bridge looks cool. Only the way under the bridge long, is currently no longer passable. Too many trees fell over

Coming from "Bilstein" Hauptstrasse from Obersteeg, turn right onto the newly opened section of the railway line. This goes past the golf course to Georgshausen Castle.

Nice view of the Lindlarer Sülz, which joins the Kürtener Sülz to the Sülz a little further down the river.

The Sülztalbahn once ran here. Officially, the "Sülztalbahn" doesn't actually exist. After its completion, the railway line was officially called "Cologne-Lindlar" and was divided into several operational sections from Kalk-Süd via Cologne-Mülheim, Cologne-Dellbrück, Bergisch Gladbach, and Rösrath to Lindlar.

June 21, 2025,21.06.2025: 17 Komma 2, ADFC-Berg, Parallel-Tandem-Tour, Kürtener Stelen und die Sülztalbahn-Trasse nach Lindlar
Today, a solo ride on the Sülztalbahn line from Klefhaus Bridge via Georghausen Castle to Lindlar. Considering the actual route, the parallel tandem is suitable because it only covers the gradients of the former railway line.

But then there's the approach route (here, from and to Biesfeld). The gradients are a challenge, even with the highest level of assistance and …

After all the rain... and careful observation of the weather app. Out into the fresh air and along the railway line to Lindlar to enjoy a coffee.

Went to Lindlar for a little shopping trip - along the Sülzbahn route... I got my second e-bike out of hibernation (you never treat yourself to anything else) and "rolled it up" again. It was already cold at +1.0 degrees... but nice. You don't notice the hills because of the slight ascent of the route... and down?... just let it …

it's always worth going back to the "Kirche am Weg" in Linde. Again and again current topics and songs and 'meditations. And if you then want to know more about the Church of St. Joseph, please use the QR code. Highly recommended. And then continue the slight incline over the railway line to Lindlar to the ice and back. Pedal …

Probably for the last time in this to the Klückseis ice cream parlor in Lindlar. There were only 4 varieties left; but the high summer/summer/autumn weather with a whopping 18 degrees (felt at least 25 degrees) was just too tempting. Opposite the Catholic St. Severin Parish Church in Lindlar enjoyed coffee and ice cream again on the outside terrace. Bye …

The right to vote is a duty to vote in our democracy! So: with the ebike to the polling station. Sunshine too... and for the first time, enjoying 3 delicious scoops of ice cream in front of the ice cream parlor. That's how Sunday goes

Down to Offermannsheide and later back up to Oberbörsch .. and in between: along the Sülztalbahntrasse and .. enjoy.

just make a fast 28 km .. and with the beautiful railway line you don't really notice the 340 hm. Make small purchases in tranquil Lindlar, have a cappuccino and then back again.
