Rained out OTW to Pielenhofen

It was supposed to rain all day. I was excited to see a break predicted, so I saddled up and trudged on. I left the garage to find a fine mist greeting me on the street. I thought to myself: You got this, Self. Press on, you’re tougher than this. I pressed on. I GOT DRENCHED. By the time I got to Mariaort, I was just done. I can handle being cold....

Irlbach and Grünthal

Thursday, June 3rd was Fronleichnam (“Happy Cadaver”). Most people I work with took Friday as a Brückentag (bridge day)…but not me. I worked a good chunk of a normal day, finishing what I wanted to achieve before next week, and headed out for an evening ride, on purpose shooting for about 20 km. I took a brand new (to me) route to the northeast heading through the Konradsiedlung, Wutzlhofen, on a tangent to Haslbach on my way to Irlbach....

Holiday Glide

It was Pfingstmontag and I had the day off of work. I intended a nice long ride, but I just wasn’t feeling it, and I took a wrong turn near Burgweinting, and again at Obertraubling, and decided to swing by the airstrip, and the rain was threatening the whole time So I cut it drastically short. But it was still a pretty good ride. Kinda got the impression that glider was following me though....

Still Here

Lest ye fret: I’m still here, and still walking and biking (though not as consistently as I’d like). I’ve got a couple bike ride reports in the hopper. The walks are a lot less interesting than they were at first (lots of repitition). But they’re still happening. Happy stalking me!
