Short Day in km, good ascent though, 3200ft in 10 miles. The route went through the Black Forest, gasping views galore.






We’d started by navigating through rush hour Freiburg. Made for cycling and used to its full by “normal people” commuting and school runs by bike. More polite than Amsterdam to us amateurs. Soon we were into open country.






The villages are quiet but prosperous looking. Ablaze with solar panels. All to soon eye finished. Off to follow the Danube tomorrow. Hopefully the oompah band in the local pub will run out of puff soon….
