June 9, 2023,Von Verden nach Nienburg/Weser

Due to the north wind, I also rode this stage in the opposite direction from Verden train station to Nienburg train station. Once you are out of Verden and have left the main road, you drive - except for the passages through the small villages - only on very beautiful dirt roads. You cross the Weser a few times, once …

Weser Cycle Route 🌊 - here I am again😃. What I started in 2021 should now find its final conclusion this year😃.
So today was the next stage from Nienburg to Verden (and back).
A lot of village idyll and "flat land" characterized this tour. I thought it was wonderful 🤩 (except for the flat tire🙊 - but thanks to …

Cool we start into a sunny ☀️ morning. The cycle path meanders idyllically through meadows and forests along the Weser. Shortly before Schweringen we take the ferry across. On the other side there is a beer garden and grilled food, but for us it's 11:30 a.m. a little too early. The route is simply wonderful, no traffic and: hardly any …

Not only was it a lot cooler today than yesterday, but there was also a strong headwind and a thunderstorm, so we had to shelter. The paths were mainly very little-used country roads and farm roads, great to drive on. It went criss-cross through fields and meadows and through beautiful z. T. tiny villages with old half-timbered farms. From time …

I set off this morning in the most beautiful cycling weather and enjoyed the tranquility of the early Sunday morning. Getting many animals in front of the lens and rolling relaxed in front of me....
I didn't meet any fellow cyclists until behind Drakenburg, which seemed pretty scary to me, since I hadn't started that early...
I took my cappuccino …
