September 28, 2021,Von Bug, Bamberg nach Schonungen

From Bug, via Bamberg to Schonungen. Nice bike tour with slight inclines, diversions are well described. Almost always along the Main.

Well-developed bike paths, although most of them run along the main road. It's not always possible to cycle directly along the Main River, as several "islands" and tributaries cross the route. The towns are very beautiful, especially Bamberg with its medieval old town.

The scenery isn't that great, there's a lot of highways along the way. You rarely see the Main

A little rain started shortly before 12 noon, but then the weather quickly stabilized.
Overall a nice tour.

I would like to ride the June tour again and deepen the impressions a bit. You can safely forget today's section. A lot along roads and the car traffic was sometimes quite annoying. Luckily it was only a few kilometers and tomorrow it will be much better. I did enjoy the ride itself though.

A very bad start with rain from Bamberg has developed quite well up to Haßfurt. Easy paths, nice landscape. Unfortunately, often on the N26 federal road.
Definitely Weingut Dr. Heigel in Zeil am Main at the roundabout exit towards Haßfurt
visit.😀🥂
