Feldweg Home Feedback is great and thanks to Sandra M for hers. Thus, we have revised once more the 54km Gö Feldweg Omloop (soon the 41 will follow) by taking out the cobbles adjacent to the railway at Obernjesa. Although the cobbles at the Obernjesa railway are fun especially where the rusting rails remain from… Continue Reading

The small Gö Feldweg Omloop ridden on a majority of Betonweg, or mixed surface farm/forest roads and cycle paths closed to general motor traffic. A homage to the Spring road race classics. It felt like riding in the Low Countries – I was head banging a wall of wind. Thankfully no rain! It was great… Continue Reading

The majority of the ride was on Betonweg or mixed surface farm/forest roads and cycle paths closed to general motor traffic. On this ride in my head, I was riding the Gent Wevelgem cycle race, but not at their pace! This version of the Feldweg Omloop misses out the southern stages to Bisenhausen.

We rode out from Göttingen onto the defunct Gartelbahn to Waterloo, and no, we did not pedal as far as Belgium or London. I had for many years lived in London close to Waterloo and the Station, and now by some odd quirk of fate I find myself living a short bike ride from another… Continue Reading

The average life expectancy of a washing machine is ten years and if excessively clunking noisily or if your machine gives off a fugue then it’s probably telling you the end is nigh.

I had no reason to cringe (or cringy) on my ride this day, nor did I have cause to be Sus (suspect). In addition, I did not feel lost, the latter in the context of feeling discombobulated, also, I had no reason to express Sheesh (disbelief). Having grown up in England all these words are… Continue Reading

Josh Schenk and I ventured into the evening rain to visit the now defunct internal border which until 1989 separated Germany. The border ran for 1,381 kilometres from the Baltic Sea to what was then Czechoslovakia, the East German Government called it their anti-fascist barrier but in reality, it reflected the economic and political challenge… Continue Reading

My new bike is a ride into the 21st century and I met with Josh Schenk and Gunnar Fehlau at the Göttingen Velodrome for a party pace spin.

It has crossed my mind several times to conduct guerrilla gardening and line the white gravel roads of Göttingen with Tuscan tree seeds. I believe it would make the area just a bit cooler! Now, a second thought has hit me, what about guerrilla cobble stone laying? There are cobbles in Göttingen but nothing of… Continue Reading

We ventured away from the Dransfeld Ramp (an abandoned railway) and rode into the Börl Valley via the village of Hetjershausen (the village well survives) to the west of Göttingen.
