Swim in the Lac de Longemer early in the morning when it rained 💦 then with heavier rain 💦💦, then a wonderful tour over the Lac de Gerardmer to La Bresse, which is a MTB 🚵‍♂️ stronghold in the Vosges. Via Hohneck back to the lac de Longmer.😃😄

Actually it should only be a little sightseeing to Lac de Gerardmer. But then we turned off to avoid going back the same way. Out of solidarity, the battery support was dispensed with and the 24 kg bike was cranked up the mountains in bio mode. That's not how I imagined it when I bought it 🙈😅
