Slow start due to closed roads and railway barriers that did not open for 30min. Müggelberg was tricky, the first summit is only fake, follow the ridge to the main summit. More than 50% of 125km citylike traffic. Camping at a lake close to Wandlitz.
Not a giant with 201m, but the Kutschenberg is technical more difficult as the Fichtelberg. Passing through Brandenburg, lots of windmills replacing the coal? 152km to a campsite at Tonsee.
All night rain and in the morning as well and all day. Zschopau and Meissen on the way. At about 2.30pm in Radebeul at the Kajak/Kanu Club where they allow traveller by bike and boat to stay with their tent. Shower, dry BBQ place and relaxed people. Late afternoon a visit to Villa Shatterhand. Hero/author of many books I read when I was a bit younger.
First stop in Waldsassen at a bakery at 6.45am, did not want to change money for my shortcut and at the monastery for a healthy bicycle. Enjoyed small roads and quite a few hills and was at my first destination at about 2pm: Fichtelberg, Saxony, 1215m.
Visited Pernink/Bärringen where Rudolf Kippenhahn was Born.
Short day, because I wanted to see how the couple was doing with their campsite project. Stayed with them twice in 2008 and 2011 and quite a few things were added, but they are still genuin nice people and I enjoy being there. They put a lot of work in it. Today not only a pool but a sauna and many things more.
