Nice e-bike after work round to ventilate your head and test your fitness.

Today I came home a little late from work and didn't feel like cycling through muddy trails in the upcoming twilight. So I decided on asphalt. And one of my favorite laps with the e-bike, where I can compare my times. There is also a speed segment …

Very scenic e-bike tour for airing out, testing fitness and a not-so-serious compatibility check 😉

Comfortable e-bike tour via Romont to Biel and back along the Aare.

Today we wanted to enjoy the beautiful weather and decided to take a bike ride.

We started in Bettlach and cycled up to Romont via Grenchen. From there, behind the Bözingenberg, we pedaled through the beautiful - seemingly remote - high valley to Vauffelin and later whizzed past …
