May 24, 2023,Nach Nievenheim auf ein Eis

The reward ice cream for RuK on Sunday was still pending. So graveled through forest and meadows to slurp an absolutely creamy and delicious ice cream in Nievenheim in the Eiscafe Cellino.
The blocking of Neusser Straße should be lifted shortly. Paving work on the roadway and bike path has been completed.
Hopefully it will finally get a little warmer. …

Due to the strong wind we decided to do a forest tour today. We took some very narrow and beautiful single trails. Partly quite overgrown with man-high ferns. We drove back along the Rhine via the Zonser Grind. Instead of a reward ice cream, Pit Jupp had an alcohol-free wheat beer today. 😘

We went for a short ride in perfect weather. There were a few people out on gravel bikes. The 💨 was quite chilly again. But there's always something.😀

Along the banks of the Rhine, a reward ice cream at Cellino in Nievenheim (was not the Burner), through the Knechtsteden forest, including off-road exercise. Just beautiful. 😍
