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.

But it was still a pretty good ride. Kinda got the impression that glider was following me though....

Regenstauf Restock

I needed to hit the packaging-free store again, and it was kind of a holiday weekend (Christi Himmelfahrt, or Ascension for those keeping score at home), and there was a window of agreeable weather. (The rest of this weekend has been pretty iffy, weather-wise.)

Big ambition...but no

It had been a couple weeks, so I guess I’m not all that surprised that I bailed about a quarter of the way through and chopped the route in half. Nothing hurt particularly — I could just tell I wasn’t feeling it would regret not crossing the Danube at Donaustauf when I had the chance.
