110410 Speiden
neill, 21:02h
At lunch time Jon rang up to ask if we wanted to go Geocaching. Yes Please!
Cycled to Rehbichl for the first cache ( http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=79abbfa3-e727-4200-bfbf-5ab8b80300ca ) and then on to Speiden for the second ( http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?guid=e886568d-68f0-4f58-89b5-73219cd3818c ).
Went in to the brewery for a coffee but got a beer put in front of us so we drank that :-)
Back via Kögelweiher.

110403 Ellegg
neill, 15:40h
Sunday morning and another day of sunshine. Max suggested a ride to the top of the Ellegg which sounded like a challenge so early in the year but fun.
Near the top we went off on an "exploration" of untried tracks which opened on to some amazing views.
Came home via the Mühlbach and then picked Rhiannon up from Chris's. Few kilometers but lots of fun.

110402 Grüntensee
neill, 22:33h
Spent the day in the garden - we even had the professionals in to get the hedge cut at the top of the garden.
Afterwards I went for a bike ride but by the time I got to Wertach I had really done enough for one day. Only managed 17 kms at a 22.3km/h average.

110329 Füssen
neill, 21:47h
The clocks have been changed to summer time so it is still light after work. I got a bit carried away on my race bike. 45kms with a moving average of 24.2km/h. Not bad for the start of the season.
The track is at http://www.gpsies.com/map.do?fileId=flljvytwkhwjogqp Strangely I finished where I started but the GPS showed a position 30m lower.

110325 Görisried
neill, 20:12h
A Friday afternoon. Finished work and unblocked the chimney. The sun was still shining so I rode towards Wald, across the Wertach river, up in to Görisried and then home.
30km with a moving average of 19.5km/h. The wind was against me all the way home which didn't help the moving average :-)

110312 Alpspitz skiing
neill, 20:16h
Alison, Max and I out for two hours skiing. Fantastic snow perfectly prepared, very few people and fantastic weather.
With all the tourists gone we could ski as fast as we wanted with the only danger being that of hitting each other.
