It's Sunday and the weather is nice. I'm slowly having to get used to cycling again. So we're starting with short rides so that the old illness doesn't get any worse. I'd also like to ride other routes again. I'm excited to see what the doctor will say in May. Hopefully only good things.

It's about time to get moving again. We took advantage of the dry weather and went for a tour around Rühner Lake. Even the cows are drawn outside again.
When it gets warmer, things will really get going again.
