Chemnitztal Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The people of Chemnitz can be truly proud of their bike path: completely paved, with a roughly 30-meter-long tunnel through the rock, and at least one large bridge. What more could you want?

July 28, 2024,Suche nach der Fischwegbrücke

The press reported that the old Fischweg bridge is to be moved to the new rest area in Draisdorf. Since we wanted to know a little more precisely which bridge was meant, we went looking.

This isn't actually my time of year for cycling. It was also quite cold, and the puddles in the fields were frozen.

But somehow I have to lose the fat and get my fitness back. I just crept uphill. I can feel my legs and my backside.

Yes, every beginning is difficult, but necessary. 🚴‍♂️🤪

Today we chose a sunny route again, 🌞 before it gets cooler and cloudier again in the next few days. ⛅️ Only the distant view wasn't very clear.
For some people the Easter Bunny seems to be knocking on the door. 😃🐰🐣

Heading home today via Chemnitz to pick up my order from the spice factory "Direkt vom Feld". Wonderful cycling weather, a fantastically empty Chemnitztal cycle path and I've completed the 4000 kilometres of cycling to work this year. 😅
