Reuss pedestrian and cycle bridge near Mellingen

Highlight • Bridge

Mellingen is really a very pretty town, but traffic often jams between the gates and it is not particularly comfortable for bicycles. That's why I like to use the metal walkway near the sewage treatment plant on my tours.

Since I hadn't cycled for more than a few minutes in such low temperatures for a very long time, sorting through and optimizing my gear felt like it took longer than the ride to Windisch. (Gloves! I can always find one quickly – but finding the right second one almost always requires rummaging through everything ;-)

Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time for more today - what a pity considering the glorious weather! But at least I was able to test the new saddle a bit. It makes a good impression, I'm looking forward to the next, hopefully longer, ride.
