140601 Tannheimertal
After a week of feeling ill I was back on the road bike today. And I was on a new road bike! For my fiftieth birthday many people gave me money towards a new bike and this week it came. It is bright orange (of course) and the twin of my mountain bike. Jon put it all together the last few days and today we took it out for a test ride. I must have enormous faith in Jon. He screws everything together and then I sit on it and ride 80kmh down a road on it.

You can't fool the "personal trainer" built in to my Polar watch and it said "you still are not fully fit so don't go over a 144 heart beat". The result was a slow but fun ride up in to Austria, through the high Tannheim Valley and then back home. Jon nicely stayed with me all the way.



As Jon said - we really have a great life.

57 kms with 716 meters of climbing
