July 15, 2022,Von Bad Hersfeld nach Hanau 1/3

It started today with the 3-day bike tour in Bad Hersfeld. At around 23 degrees and a slightly cloudy sky, we headed towards Bad Salzschlirf. The cycle path runs along the Fulda through the beautiful Fulda meadows. It is very nice and easy to drive. Arrived at the day's destination, Michelangelo offered a nice pizza as a reward.

Today an old railway line was on the bike program again. 😊😊
With ☀️ and blue skies, I have resolved not to have a problem.

Since the route is mostly near rivers, it was quite fresh at this temperature.

So today I didn’t make an altitude difference but a distance. 🤠

Have a nice evening and stay healthy. 🤠🤠🤠
