120403 Görisried
neill, 23:11h
Tuesday night is race bike night and despite rain during the day it had cleared by the evening. Four of us were out.
Track at http://www.gpsies.com/map.do?fileId=auacqjherdecmmtd and take a look at that "hole" at about 21kms. It is really as steep as it looks and two of us had to get off for a rest on the way up.

neill, 20:57h
Out exploring with Max. Found an interesting path up and an adventurous path down from the ruined castles.
Track at http://www.gpsies.com/map.do?fileId=vlimkqlpwchtbtut and look at that descent in the middle. Really steep and single trail (path) :-)

120311 Hahnenkamm
neill, 17:30h
The weather forecast promised rain in the afternoon so this morning we went to the Hahnenkamm for a few hours of extreme skiing.
This picture was taken just as Max gained control after taking off over a cliff - crazy!
Both Max and I managed accidents. I lost control and tumbled head over heals down a steep off piste slope and Max head butted the piste. He is going to have such sore muscles.

120304 Bachtel with the race bike
neill, 13:37h
The first time out with the race bike this year. The weather forecast said it was going to rain but they lied.
The Wertach Bridge (shown in the picture) is closed from tomorrow for the next 18 months to be rebuilt. This means that I need a new "standard race bike" route so I tried including Bachtal and Gschwend today.
