August 10, 2022,⚡🚵‍♂️ Beidseits an der Thur entlang bis zur Mündung in den Rhein bei Ellikon, Runde ab Brücke Neunforn
We really liked this round on both sides of the Thur up to the confluence with the Rhine at Ellikon. The easily noticeable bise was not cold for once, but rather pleasant, but still slightly annoying as a headwind.

Ride carefully and don't overestimate yourself. Challenging sections with nasty roots 🤪 and be considerate on the hiking trails ✌️

How do you go when only performance counts? Going out with a busy personality can get you out of breath. Breaks are in short supply and consideration is written in small letters.
"Just hold on." could then (d) be a life sentence.
