LTG MOUNTAIN BIKING | WASSERKUPPE, RHOEN

yesterday i did my first post about mountain biking in fulda this weekend. my brother in law HANS and me did just a short tour on friday because of really bad weather conditions. today it was a sensation with the weather: blue skies and no rain; a bit stormy near WASSERKUPPE, RHOEN – just perfect. we drove an old train track straight from FULDA to WASSERKUPPE. really amazing: a long tunnel through complete MILSEBURG just for biker with a lot bats. the tour was really hard for me because this was just my fourth MTB tour after getting out the metal of my shoulder this april. so we made 96 km and for me unbelievable 1.800 meters difference in altitude. and now: so tired … pics | LTG

LTG MOUNTAIN BIKING AROUND FULDA, GERMANY

today i did a day off and went to fulda, germany, my city of birth where my parents and my brother live. i met my brother-in-law HANS there to go mountain biking the next three days. today we did our first trip fulda river upwards through the mountains of vogelsberg. it was rainy, cold, muddy but it was so great in the autumn forest! i got some new stuff from ASSOS last week but i did not use it because i was afraid of getting the new stuff too dirty. hm. but what a fun, HANS wore an old school ASSOS RUBY JACKET which back i designed 12 years ago with a big print. nostalgic look but the ASSOS jacket is still working – no wonder, best quality ever in bike clothes. today we did 65 kilometers. it was heavy for me because of the weather conditions and the bad muddy forest ways. running is really another thing. tomorrow we’ll go by MTB from fulda to WASSERKUPPE the highest mountain in RHOEN with 950 meters. i think i will go to bed early this evening. pics |  LTG
