With its 158m, the giant mountain is certainly not a giant and the area of the ridge is manageable, but the inner values are huge.

Two weeks ago, I made my first quick visit to Rieseberg on my mountain bike. A lot has happened in those two weeks.

It was very chilly today, but the light was fantastic.

Believe me... I've already sorted through a lot of pictures.
