July 27, 2024,Magglingen, Place de Central Geissrügge,Frinviller,Magglingen,Biel

By train up to Magglingen.😁 From there, the start with a new route towards Place de Central. The route to the Geissrügge entrance leads over beautiful trails. The many tight bends, hairpin bends and steps require a lot of concentration and skill up to Friviller. I couldn't ride everything, it still requires some technical training.😉😅 Back to Magglingen and then …

The Chasseral was also planned. But as I lost my cell phone after a short time and had to search for about two hours, I skipped the Chasseral. Two other bikers actually found the cell phone, so I was able to climb Mont Sujet after all, but this time with a shorter descent to the Maiterie de Preles and back …

Scenic Jura E-Mountain Bike Tour with a Hearty Finish

The weather was a bit mixed today. Heavy rain overnight until the early morning hours, followed by sunny weather with a chance of thunderstorms in the early afternoon. Therefore, we planned a short ride in the surrounding area – despite the prospect of mud and slippery Jura rocks.
