A beautiful place, arguably the most interesting in the town. The market square is square, with each side measuring 70 meters. There are also many interesting townhouses here, as well as the Church of Ten Thousand Martyrs.

Przylasek Railway Viaduct

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge offers a nice view, but you can walk there with your bike to Przylasek Rusiecki, but you have to watch out for trains. It's slippery there.

It's been hard to find time for a bike lately, today a quick change after work and at least 50km. Sometimes there was a funny wind in the face. It was a bit like a storm was brewing..

- my leg was giving and returning with the wind on these tires are really good results. I can only imagine how much power would be with SPD and on a different tread
- unfortunately the bays are defeating me, so it's not good
- you have to remind yourself to wave or wave, although today was easier than yesterday …

It wasn't easy, but it wasn't very hard either.. 30 days without a bike shows, especially in the muscles.. but the heart is "reasonable"... and definitely better than recently on running and training 🙈

If you live in Krakow, you should make a tribute route to your city at least once a year, i.e. bow before Wawel, make the sign of the cross at the Church on Skałka, reflect in Kazimierz, and then ride with a feeling of gratitude along the Vistula; gratitude not because it's bad to live somewhere else (because it's not), …

Detour of the embankments. Lots of pheasants and a slight disappointment with what was done on the left bank of the Vistula. Getting to Przylasek Rusieckiego is quite annoying, there are still many holes in the infrastructure.

The area around Port Kujawy is getting worse year by year, unfortunately. If the city could come to an agreement with Polish Waters about a footbridge over the flood gates, it could be fine. But unfortunately it is :(
