Freddie Frinton 2 – November 12 2019 Road Ride

We all had a tough ride at the weekend so we didn´t push hard on this ´same procedure as last time´ lunchtime ride. Having braved a strong cold wind, we were rewarded with some sunshine.

On route and as near as we got to the old internal border we stopped and Andrea surprised Gunnar Fehlau by giving him a few pieces of the Berlin Wall which she and her mother had collected in 1989.

Tip of the Iceberg – November 10 2019 Road Ride

Andrea did comment about the state of my bike from my ride the previous day.

Once we had established that it is best etiquette to ride with a clean bike, we took in a 30km road only spin.

It was cold! The coldest I have felt so far since I moved to Germany and that includes our ride in the forest in April when it snowed. I guess the temperature now is just the tip of the iceberg because it will no doubt be even colder at some point and I will have to take steps!

So much of the colour had been drained away at this time although there was a field of purple wild-flowers, which would be nice to know what they are.
