I have to get out today. Yesterday's beautiful weather encouraged me, but it just wasn't possible. Despite the fact that the sky was overcast today, I set off. I hit a lot of trails towards Riedenburg. And on the return ride along the canal, I was finally rewarded by the sun. What a beautiful spectacle! The colorful leaves immediately showed …

I wouldn't do the tour like that. I pushed the Celtic Wall (environmental protection) but you can bypass it on forest paths. I also pushed the descent to the Danube (life-saving measure), better further down east, it's rideable.
