neill, 18:46h
A great mountain bike tour to the top of an amazing mountain. Alison's first time out on a "Frenchie" mountain bike.
And an incredible trail from the top to the bottom - 600 meters!
With a picnic on top of the mountain and stops at two mountain Alms to quench our thirst.

120617 Ödenalpe
neill, 22:32h
Jon suggested that we redo a classic from last year. Five of us set off to the Ödenalpe and four of us arrived - one changed her mind on the way and went off with some one else :-(
Apparently the weather was cold and overcast in Nesselwang so it is good that we were in Austria where we had sun and very warm.

72km 1375hm 05:16 hours moving at 13.7km/h average.

A wet cold June morning so ideal for a quick geocache :-)
Did the Wildbach geocache before the rest of the family got up.

Our geocache "Camelot" has been there for seven years now and a lot has changed so that some of the clues are no longer correct. Alison, Max and I went out to follow the route and research new clues.

120607 Kreuzbänkle
neill, 12:30h
A fantastic Thursday tour. Max was the only person there from Group 1 so we took pity on him and took him with us. The three men rode down the "Kreuzbänkle" track (at about kilometer 12) to Schwarzenberger Weiher (Wow!) while the ladies sensibly rode round the top.
Almost got soaked but found a bridge to hide under at just the right time.

The plan was 50kms in to Austria but I think I was still recovering from the party last night so we settled for 28kms round the lake.

120519 Alpspitz
neill, 20:26h
This morning Max suggested a bike ride up the Alpspitz and Alison decided to jog up with us.
From Nesselwang to the top of the mountain was 700 mters of climb and Alison jogged faster than I could cycle.
At the top it began to rain and so Alison took the cable car down while Max and I got as dirty as possible on a wet, muddy, slippy path. Great fun! Max fell off three times but didn't damage himself or his bike too badly.
13km and 700hm
