Day 11
Sichtweite < 5 m 🌫
December 18, 2023 in Germany ⋅ 🌙 4 °C
In Wächtersbach gab's nochmal eine Snackpause bei der Lidl-Filiale bevor wir uns auf den Endspurt machten.
Der Nebel wurde immer dichter. Mit Einbruch der Dunkelheit konnten wir keine 5 m mehr weit sehen und der Nebel hat sich schon eher wie Regen angefühlt. Dennoch kämpften wir uns die letzten 30 km bis nach Erlenbach am Main. Wir kamen gesund am Hotel an, hatten dann aber auch nichts dagegen, dass der Tah vorbei war.

Morgen werden wir voraussichtlich in Neckarsulm bzw. Lauffen am Neckar ankommen. Und dann ist der ganze Spaß schon vorbei. 🥲

Tagesetappe: 124 km
Gesamtstrecke bisher: 1509 kmRead more

Glass blowing lesson

Day 4
Tour with Oma Helga
August 17, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C
Oma Helga took us on the best road trip today!! Our first stop was at the mysterious and charming Schloss Mespelbrunn. Here we were very impressed by the vast history and old legendary artefacts. I wish I was born into a family with a big castle 👀 next we went to Aschaffenburg where Schloss Johannisberg was waiting to greet us with its late Renaissance grandeur. Great views over the Main river and a very cute Altstadt too. To end the day we had dinner at an Italian restaurant called Landhaus Fernblick where we were spoiled with sublime Mediterranean tastes and a fresh sunset 🐝🌅 (and we saw a squirrel!!!!!)Read more

Day 17
Gasthaus Zum Riesen, Miltenberg
April 10, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
Later in the afternoon we headed back out for a drink and early dinner at the oldest licenced pub in Germany, the Gasthaus zum Riesen. The hotel dates back to at least 1411. It is also famous as the oldest continuously operated hotel in the world, with many famous guests including The King, Elvis Presley. It even got warm enough for us to actually take our jackets off for a few minutes, the first time it has gotten past 10 degrees all trip. Sitting in the sunshine was lovely.

On the walk back to our apartment we stopped off for a spaghettieis at Cortina Eiscafe. Spaghettieis is a German ice cream dish designed to resemble a plate of spaghetti. Very tasty, and served on a bed of whipped cream with chocolate sauce.

We have really enjoyed our stay here, especially in our historic hotel with its gorgeous restaurant/breakfast room. Sadly it was only open for breakfast while we were here and as the chef was so good I’m sure the other meals he makes would be just as tasty. Originally a 16th century wine house, Hotel Schmuckkästchen was the perfect location for our two night stay in Miltenberg.

Miltenberg is such a picturesque town and one we are happy to have included on our trip.Read more

Day 17
Mainbrucke, Miltenberg, Germany
April 10, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
We walked to the Wurzburger Tor, the eastern entrance to Miltenberg’s old town, once a heavily guarded gate back in Medieval times. We continued on to have a look at the town bridge, Mainbrucke Miltenberg. It wasn’t until 1900 that the town had its own bridge and with the original one detonated by retreating Germans in 1945, the current one wasn’t opened until 1950 and the design embraced Miltenberg’s Medieval heritage with a replica of a fortified sandstone gatehouse.

After our morning stroll we stopped in our square a croissant and cappuccino for morning tea. One of the best croissants so far. The added bonus is that as today is a public holiday for Easter Monday it means there are not a lot of tourist around, but with that positive is the negative that the quaint little shops aren’t open for me to browse in (which Brad is happy about).Read more

Auf einen letzten Ritt
December 19, 2023 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 0 °C
Ein letztes Mal hieß es: Rein in die Fahrradklamotten, Taschen packen und am Fahrrad befestigen und ab aufs Rad.

Heute morgen war es mit -1°C richtig kalt, aber dank der Sonne hatten wir eine traumhafte Kulisse. Die ersten ~20 Kilometer liefen sehr gut und wir kamen schnell voran. In Amorbach haben wir bei der Lidl-Filiale eine Snackpause eingelegt, bevor es an die Höhenmeter im Odenwald ging. Die Anstiege liefen im Großen und Ganzen echt gut. In Limbach haben wir bei Thomas die vorderen Bremsbeläge gewechselt, nachdem eine ganze Weile wir von einem Bremsen-Quietschen begleitet worden sind. Anschließend gab es noch ein paar kleinere Anstiege, die uns nochmal ordentlich Kraft kosteten, da sie teilweise sehr steil waren. Aber wir kamen trotzdem gut voran.Read more
