Werner has noticed that the Kellerwald Bikemarathon is taking place in Gilserberg this weekend, of course without an e-bike.
BUT .. today there was the opportunity to explore the route with the e-mountain bike.
The organizers invited the tour guide to drive the route with the trails (26 km), plus the marshals and the accompanying teams with motocross machines.
Anyone …

Following in the footsteps of the Kellerwald Bike Marathon again.
It was a bit difficult to find the right path.🤔
Next time I'll use GPS.
But it was still a lot of fun riding the trails without all the mud like in April. 😃
