How can you ride in a circle and it all seems to be against the wind? The weather forecast was bad for today but they lied so I was out on my race bike.

110501 May Day Grüntensee
neill, 15:06h
I have had a cold for a week now so have not been out biking once. Today I wrapped up warm and took the race bike out for a spin around the Grüntensee.
As you can see, spring has now arrived in Allgäu. Great for those of us without hay fever.

110423 Edelsberg
neill, 23:04h
Max and I cycled to Pfronten and then back over the Edelsberg. The first "real mountain biking this year. Only 25 kms but 750 meters of climbing.
As you can see in the picture, there is still some snow in the mountains.
Track is at http://www.gpsies.com/map.do?fileId=btibpvcwphbyfikg and yes it felt as steep as it looks in the profile, particularly the bit at about 14 kms. I pushed that. I just can not ride that steep on loose stones.

110422 Lengenwang & Görisried
neill, 23:38h
For various reasons today was not so good. But this great 45 km race bike tour with Heidi cheered me up immensely. 410 meters of climbing but a lot of long enjoyable descents. The views back in to the mountains were amazing with the snow filled mountains rising above the sea of yellow dandelions.
