I ventured out to ride a ´road´ based bike tour that links together asphalt and Betonweg field roads with cobbles and gravel, plus cycle paths and public roads.
The long Göttingen Feldweg Omloop without the gnarly gravel sections above Volkerode.
Living the dream – Flanders and Paris Roubaix.
Bravo! – Tanja Erath for featuring in a long early break (EF Education–Tibco–SVB) and Hannah Buch (from Gö) for starting the Women´s PRBX and working for her team Roland Cogeas Edelweiss Squad.
