The Ruhr bike ride project started with today's tour. The routes are based on the planning of the Aufbruch Fahrrad Dortmund and Velo City Ruhr initiatives from the Corona year 2020. Of course, we start with the main bicycle part, the frame.
To be continued. I hope that in the end you can see that it…

This is a gravel tour through southern Münsterland (or is it northern Ruhr area?) with almost complete exclusion of road traffic. The tour is named after the small river Funne at the turning point of the tour near Selm, which you follow for a long stretch on a very beautiful single trail.
The planning…

Today, to welcome the weekend, we did another brisk lap on the gravel with @clausjustcycle at a magical 20°. The low sun provides an intense light that makes the autumn colors shine, there are no clouds of dust or deep mud on the paths, just slightly damp and nice and grippy.
With every additional meter…

Unfortunately, most of the autumn leaves have already fallen off and made some of the bends quite slippery. This tour on well-known routes and along the Ruhr is beautiful, especially in autumn, even if the autumnal riot of colours has probably already passed its peak. This was balanced out by the best…

Forest highways, technical single trails, several nature reserves and all of this in the best autumn weather.
If you avoid my many small mistakes, this is an unreservedly recommendable gravel tour through the southeast of Düsseldorf.

A very beautiful city and surroundings. Incidentally, Greifswald is celebrating the birthday of its artist Caspar David Friedrich in a big way this year.

The great summer weather was perfect for an extended tour today. The destination: "Tiger & Turtle" in Duisburg - the only "roller coaster" that can be accessed via many steps. Claus had been here many years ago, for me it was the first time. Up many steps, down and up again until just before the loop…

That's how green it is around Frankfurt. This official and well-signposted circular tour leads almost exclusively along forest paths, field paths and through the floodplains of the Nidda and along the Main. My starting point was quite close to the Goethe Tower in the south of the metropolis, so I had…

"The bike must have a steel frame as a starting requirement. A magnet test is carried out when registering." This meant that the rules were not quite as strict as on my previous vintage tours, where emphasis was also placed on basket pedals, down tube shift levers and external brake cables. For me, this…
Hopefully the last hike with my Haglund heel! And if everything goes well, multi-day hikes will be possible again next year. It was actually the music culture that brought me to this area, but the Sallandse Heuvelrug National Park is worth a trip in itself. Extensive heathlands and forests in slightly…
