Basically a great round and after a few meters of altitude you will be rewarded with foresight 🥳🤩. There are many beautiful trails to explore as …

Back to the soup, this time leisurely via Herbetswil-Matzendorf-Laupersdorf-Balsthal and back to Niederbipp via the beautiful high trail - there wasn't enough time for more, but it …

The downhill was, as always at this time of year, a bit chilly, but the long straight stretch from Herbetswil to Balsthal was perfect for warming up 🚴‍♀️💨 - it was …
