April 6, 2025,Zum Stöffelpark - Tour von Mario Gröber

It was significantly cooler than yesterday. Long pants were a must today, and I also wore a balaclava underneath. 🥶
Plus a headwind. 🙈 But you just have to take advantage of the fantastic weather.

Nevertheless, a nice tour from @Mario Gröber. Slightly modified.
