It's worth resting here. If you have a bit of wood, a lighter and a grill with you, this is a great place to do it. Otherwise, plan accordingly. A little highlight for everyone in the family 👌🏻

Today is the 1st anniversary of the death of my longtime cycling friend Hartmut (Mäxer) Gutsche. And this was one of his favorite tours

A relaxed round, and at the halfway point, a delicious beer with bratwurst and a roasted meat on the Hörselberg. The fantastic view of the Inselsberg in sunshine was complimentary.
