Across Bavaria and into Austria.

The first few miles were the usual annoying cities, but we’re in the Alps, goats and all. Stopped in Lermoos to sync up with Jason.

The gravel roads out of Freiburg recall some of my favorite riding of our 2024 trip through the Harz mountains northeast of Frankfurt.
Back to Mulhouse to catch the family Sooter for the stage 14 depart of the Tour de France before crossing the into Germany. From there, Freiburg to again see Jason and family for dinner and drinks.
Pingree Park road is a full width washboard mess. Which is impressive, because they were grading and spraying mag chloride when we rode it two months ago.
The marmots have emerged from their winter slumber, and are hungry for road salt. Old Fall River road is closed to motorized traffic at the moment, but the surface is a mess with all the construction going on. Still worth riding though.
