140517-18 Spinning Marathon
neill, 14:32h
The fitness studio that we have been visiting this winter had a 24 hour spinning marathon from 09:00 yesterday to 09:00 today.
I took part from 21:00 to 03:00 and Alison from 06:00-09:00.
The photo was taken about 02:30 which is maybe why I look like a Zombie.
It was great fun with a different trainer every hour, a wide selection of music and food and drink.

140513 Edelsberg
neill, 23:11h
Only Heidi and I were left of the Tuesday bikers (once again too cold for the rest) so we joined up with Max and Niko for a mountain bike tour.
Up to the pass between the Edelsberg and Alpspitz then down the ridge (no point braking - only mud, wet roots and snow) and on down to Reichenbach.
Great fun in the May snow.
