Rest area on Marienweg with several benches and a large covered table. A small swath in the forest gives a view of the dam.

The Eibenstock dam is the largest reservoir in Saxony and supplies more than half a million people with drinking water. A hilly bike path leads around the lake, which always gives you great views of the lake.

November 10, 2022,Ich hab's gemacht 😏, und den 🐍Weg nauf🚴‍♂️😤
What makes such a new chain 😏.
Come on 😤🚴‍♂️
I feel like a little 🐍(way)👑 😇🤣

First of all, from Bärenwalde over the Magischen and back to Rothenkirchen, it was constantly raining 🙉.

There's currently no work being done on the new bike path. I cycled to the upper end and the lower side.
How the connection there is supposed to be designed is still a mystery to me.
Nothing's happening at the railway bridge either …

So I thought to myself, throw away the ballast, like 🍎 vice and welding transformer 🙉, and try the 👑 again?
Has brought a net downhill weight of 18 kg🥴.
Puff cake, the south wind blew at least half the way towards me😡🤯.
But still managed under an hour Stunde.

And once I'm up there, the gate must not be neglected.

....icy wind 💨.
And no sign of invasion weather conditions either. The further you get up, the colder it gets 😱.

First of all, this was neither agreed nor planned..

I was just about to saddle up my 🚲 and get on when a 🚴‍♂️ came around the corner. I thought to myself, another 🤯.

The 👑 wasn't really my thing this year. He was a little better this time, but still far below the norm ☹️. I don't want to make excuses, but the ground was soft and preparations for the DTM are in full swing, although driving through was sometimes hampered.
On top of that, just before the summit, there was another full-blown …

And it should be a relaxed 👑 too. Would have worked well if it hadn't been for the icy wave swing. It was still too slippery even in the side ditch 🤢🤮🙆‍♂️.
