From mägdesprung up the cannon path to the bremer.
There I had to borrow an Allen key from the permanent campers.
Saddle was loose.
Otherwise a relaxed tour of both the sun every now and then

After the meager city tour this morning, the sun came out - so we went to the Selketal after all

The bridge at the Selkemühle is passable again, although not officially yet.

Otherwise I would set off without a plan
