Great tour:
Drizzle lashed horizontal from the front in the face at 25Km / h headwind. Sheep shit everywhere ...
Cycling makes you happy anyway

Today we attempted to complete the Ems Cycle Path on its original route. Last time we cycled on the right bank of the Ems.

It remained an attempt. The left bank, yes, but the original Ems Cycle Path was almost completely closed and diverted to the L15.

Always along the Ems, first a nice tailwind, but then it was time to pedal hard.
