Love cats and cycling
After the 3 1/2 weeks last summer, we decided that camper van vacation is absolutely the right thing for us. So when having found a good offer last autumn, we bought a Westfalia Columbus 540 D. Due to its length, the van can still be used as daily driver but offers all comfort of a... Continue Reading →
What can be better than spending your one day honeymoon in your own camper van and go for a hike with best weather conditions on a holiday? I'd say nothing :-). 1st May is a public holiday, so we decided yesterday to spend a night in the camper van in Bad Teinach (parking space at... Continue Reading →
Getting there ... I really feel blessed having made such good relationships with so many colleagues during my career. It is always nice to keep in touch - even if it is not on a regular basis. I spent quite some time working for an account located in Switzerland, this is where I met the... Continue Reading →
We left Finale Ligure on 13th September 2018 with the fabulous plan to drive to Livigno, sleep there, do another day riding the fancy bikepark there and then head home. Unfortunately the weather in the alps started to change from sunny to rainy on our way back, so we just had a quick stop in... Continue Reading →
The rest day yesterday was spent with walking 12 km, more serious tanning business that resulted in a bit of sunburn and of course eating ice cream. As today is the last day in Finale, there was no excuse not to climb up to the famous Nato base and ride some trails from there. We... Continue Reading →
After having spent one day with a run along the beachside and serious tanning approaches on the beach, we did another MTB trail tour yesterday. After the Kill Bill II experience, we checked for trails in the range up to S2 - I recommend trailforks for checking the skill requirements. The tour had two thankful... Continue Reading →
Unbelievable but true - we are at the mediterranean sea, with mountains, and trails. I had to go for swim almost immediately yesterday after we arrived in the late afternoon. The water is warm like in a bathtub, not refreshing but nice! Today we planned a trail tour with + 1000 meters of height, but... Continue Reading →
We are heading to Finale Ligure tomorrow, I am so excited because all those bike videos and photos I've seen on Facebook and other media made it clear to me that I have to explore this bike region soon. Meran Today we decided to use the Vinschgau card that are given to tourists here for a... Continue Reading →
For today the WiFi connection is annoying me so much that I am just going to share some pics of the hike today. The route I created is available on outdooractive.com, if you are ever visiting Schlanders and are up to gaining some meters of height by foot. It was very warm again today, we... Continue Reading →
Around 30°C with a burning sun today but we were telling ourselves today or never - uphill Sonnenberg, downhill Monte Sole (Sunny Benny) and Tschilli trail. We tried that already in 2013, on that very first bike vacation still riding hardtails, and I remember that we had to push our bikes and were not able... Continue Reading →
