After the mountain bike had been standing around unused in the corner for almost a year, I gave it a full service today, including a new chain and a new large chainring, and cleaned it until it was sparkling clean! So off I went for a test ride to see if I had put everything back together properly!

A surprise visit flew in from Lipperland today. 😃🦉 Minden and the surrounding area should be explored on a relaxed flatland tour. 👀 I immediately thought of the path on the Weser to Porta. And off we went in the Bullsride double pack.🚴‍♀️🚴
