January 15, 2023,🌬Los um den Grenzbereich🚴🏻‍♂️💨 auszutesten 🌤

The border area between Lower Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt.... it was nice ‼️
The tour was planned so that the strong 🌬💨 is on my side. The plan worked and I took good care of the weather window.
I also left the virus well behind me. Maybe not 100%, but still satisfactory. So it can go on.

In early March, the songs of the skylark already accompany you along the country lanes.

I've also seen a small flock of starlings.

April 10, 2022,Sonntagsausflug zum Spielplatz (MTB)

Today's tour was driven by curiosity. The goal was the MTB playground south of Hötensleben. On the way there I was literally carried by the wind.🚴‍♂️💨💨💨💨Average 24km/h. On the way there I actually managed to get the moufflons on the photo. They were so close they could almost eat out of my hand. I chose the way back through the …

February 29, 2024,Mein Kampf😅 mit der steifen 🌬💨 Brise🌅

It was clear to me that I would get wind from the front today🌬💨🚴🏼‍♂️.
But that biting S/O wind can be really toxic. What the heck... it was worth it and I was rewarded with wonderful moments🌅

February 23, 2025,Ein 🌞 kurzer Kuss 😘 vom Frühling🪻

It's crazy ‼️ We did a nice winter tour❄️ on Wednesday and today the temperature was in the double digits ➕️ range.

I deliberately decided to go on gravel today. The plan worked out perfectly. 2/3 outside the Elm and 1/3 Elm. In the Elm it was much wetter and therefore much more strenuous🥵.

June 2, 2024,Wenn der 🌬 Wind dein 🚴🏼‍♂️💨💨 Freund ist.....

.... then you did everything right in your planning 😅.
There was a really strong wind from the north/west today. I wanted to let the trails in the Elm dry out.
So off through the fields with the wind at my back towards Paläon and then back under the protection of the 🌬 Elm.

Friday evening... possibly the most beautiful day of the Whitsun weekend. So, off we go on our bikes and ride with the wind to the Paläon. Fantastic views and very pleasant temperatures.

December 5, 2021,Späte Runde am 2. Advent 🎄🕯🕯

The goal of the tour was the Christmas tree of the Golf Club Schöningen today. Therefore, simply leave the highlights in the Elm on the left and right. The tree looks really great. But the whole thing around it also led to a number of photos.
