My 1st MTB ride on the Donnersberg. Definitely took in two or three highlights 🤣 The profile is super training for upcoming events 📈. Speaking of 'taking in': almost head-on took in a dreamy woman in her mid-sixties on an e-MTB, who, after a sharp rear-wheel slide, said: Nobody ever comes here. Well, today... Me... Already... 🤗
