Started when there was no wind, but then there was wind again from Lampertheim, but less than yesterday.
One of the new bridges over the Weschnitz is finished but still closed.

Met Regina and Gabi in Riedrode and accompanied them to Lorsch.
Average speed up to that point: 27.4 km/h.
Temperature: 19-16°C.
