September 22, 2021,Der Oberscheinfelder Trail-Klassiker: Friedrichsberg - Schwanberg - Speckfeld
Much more trail on a 50 lap (without detours and duplication) is not possible around Oberscheinfeld. Of the 55 kilometers (and 830 meters in altitude according to Sigma), the total length of the trail sections is 31 km (measured with "Brouter"). For the most part (at least when it is reasonably dry) it is easy to ride S0 and S1 …

According to the weather forecast, the weather next week is going to be nasty: windy, cool and wet. That's why I took advantage of the ideal conditions this morning to ride my favorite circuit on dry trails. For a bit of variety, I rode the Schwanberg circuit anti-clockwise this time, the other way around than usual - and the world …

.... is to surf your favorite TRAILS on the Schwanberg circuit in TRAIL mode.
I have done the circuit many times with the hardtail (without built-in tailwind) and it was always fun. With the e-Fully and a little more support than usual (Trail instead of Eco mode), the circuit is a bit easier, faster and above all the fun factor …

I didn't want to withhold my favorite trail tour, which I rode completely for the first time this year, from Komoot. The tour is highly recommended for trail lovers who should get lost in the middle Steigerwald because of the high proportion of beautiful flowing trails!
Above all, I wanted to check the condition of the trails. The good news …

April 22, 2025,Rückentherapie-Runde
"It always aches a little, my back, sometimes more, sometimes less. You just can't pay attention to it, otherwise the pain gets worse."

Unfortunately, ignoring it doesn't always help, like last week. The lower right back muscles were blocked again, for whatever reason. Relevant back exercises—I actually know a lot of suitable exercises, including preventative ones—Thermacare and a few ibuprofen …

Finally a real mountain bike tour again 🤙
The weather was perfect and the trails in the forest were dry and easy to ride.
Roughly speaking, we went to Friedrichsberg》 Schwanberg》 Speckfeld ruins》 Birklingen》 Scharfeneck ruins and back home.
The days are getting shorter and so are my tours 😁 I was still quite groggy

Only, the strong easterly wind made the conditions a little worse today, which were otherwise perfect! That's why it was allowed to go a little further today

October 8, 2025,Trails satt 🥳🥳🥳
Today we went on an extended ride peppered with trails. There were trails of all kinds 😄 Steep, very steep, gnarled, blocked, slippery, flowing, and even wild boar-plowed. Today, we got our money's worth. Farm tracks were rare and served more as a transfer to the next trail. One of the most beautiful rides I've done in a long time …
