  • Kuchen, Beer, Pommes in Gö – June 25 2021 Road Ride

    We rode with Regines Radsalon where she chased kinder trailers (motorised), bought us pommes and beer drunk from a Maß (I haven´t partaken in drinking so much real beer in ages). We ate cake near the old DDR border and at the lake Regine elected herself as a target in a water fight. What was… Continue Reading

  • Grone, Jühnde and Berlepsch Castle Tour in Gö – June 9 2021 Road Ride

    Castles are cool despite their original intent to control, intimidate and project power over people. Now, they are romantic and can offer great views over an area. On this tour I visit three castles exiting Gö via the Dransfeld Ramp a defunct railway and the tour includes ten mild (ish) sections of gravel. This ride… Continue Reading

  • Rusteberg und Gleichen Castle Tour in Gö – May 30 2021 Road Ride

    Castles are cool despite their original intent to control, intimidate and project power over people. Now, they are romantic and can offer great views over an area. This Ride was the first scouting of a potential castles road tour and here we visited the ruins of the Rusteberg and the Gleichen. The RustebergWhen built in… Continue Reading

  • 27 Degrees of Fun in Gö – May 9 2021 Road Ride

    We have suffered a long, long period of evil cold winds cutting you to the bone – today the sun shone, and the temperatures approached 30 degrees.

  • French Connection in Gö – April 14 2021 Road Ride

    I ride regularly through village after village in the Leine Valley near Göttingen. Each has a story to tell spanning for some a thousand-year history and like so many in Central Europe they have been caught up in events beyond their control. In the 17th century the Leine Valley was ravaged by conflict during the… Continue Reading

  • retsalfpnietsfpoK Carousel in Gö – April 9 2021 ´Road´ Ride

    The Kopfsteinpflaster Carousel tour in reverse. It feels special to ride the roads of the Low Countries made famous by such races as the Tour of Flanders, Fleche Wallonne, Liege Bastogne Liege, Amstel Gold and Gent Wevelgem. But almost wherever you live you can find cool roads and this ride sees the Kopfsteinpflaster Carousel stand… Continue Reading

  • Kopfsteinpflaster Carousel in Gö – March 29 2021 Gravel/Road Ride

    Can I replicate the cycle road race routes of Flanders in Göttingen? Although the short answer is ´not easily´, I can nonetheless pay my respects to the Flemish (or Wallonia) theatres of cycle sport even if there are so few substantive stretches of cobbles to ride in the Göttingen region. One notable race is the Gent Wevelgem semi-classic which actually starts… Continue Reading

  • Asphalt in Gö – February 20 2021 Road/gravel Ride

    Stone, concrete, brick, glass, and asphalt denote the ´Built Environment´ and it is the latter we mostly played upon on this day. The intention was to hit the asphalt only, but when it became apparent that the glorious spring like weather had melted away almost all of the recent snow we eventually rode nine (benign)… Continue Reading

  • Gö – Jühnde – Gö – October 11 Road Ride

    This was mostly a new route to Jühnde for me, although I had previously ridden the first section in reverse from Dransfeld to Göttingen when we rode from the Weser River.

  • Gö – Spinnerei – Gö or last of the summer kuchen – October 3 2020 Road Ride

    A simple asphalt recovery ride after the extraction of 2 of my Wisdom teeth. The intention to eat cake (soft in my case) at the Historische Spinnerei Gartetal for what is the last day of being open for the year. It was a warm Autumn day. We rode 38km but it felt like a 100,00000000!!!… Continue Reading

    They say there is a heat wave on the way for mid-September but whatever the outcome I have been preparing for Autumn and Winter. Onto my bikes have gone sacrificial wheels and tough tyres, and I had thought that a recent band of welcome rain would have made the roads ´dirty´. I was wrong, although… Continue Reading
