View of the Fuldaschleife

Highlight • Viewpoint

Riding along the Fulda cycle path was a joy - there are plenty of bridges to get to the other side. The Fulda meanders along and there are many cosy places to stop. Highly recommended.

There's still room for improvement, it's still muddy and the wind is coming from the wrong direction...

42 signs!

Unfortunately I picked up branches twice with the derailleur, there were a lot of them falling down in the forest.

Praise to the forestry administration for that, all the fallen trees are gone. The trail at kilometer 7 is also great to ride.

Unfortunately it was pretty muddy and cold, but what can you do.
If I had some basic gravel skills, I would probably have been a quarter of an hour faster😅
On the trail next to the road, relatively at the end, I would have been better off with the penalty time for the road. It was more swimming than riding …

I completely forgot to give my Kasselsteig sign estimate @La Forêt - Gravel Club: I counted 12, I would say I missed at least 4 due to the loud uphill panting and rain. So my estimate is: 16 🧐

Right at the end of the route between Spiekershausen and Niestetal there are 3-4 large trees lying on the road. At least one of them requires a lot of climbing. According to the city, it will be removed today or tomorrow.

@La Forêt - Gravel Club maybe you'll take me to April 🙏🫣 I had to abort the first attempt due to a major breakdown. Great route, formidable routing once again. Love, your Jensi 🫀

I'll throw 43 signs into the ring. I was too busy with the rain and hail to count properly. :D
