What is mountainbiking about?
 
Team B is composed of 
J for Joshi
A for Adrian
A for Albert
K for Kann
S for Stefan
A for Angie 
A for Anton
C for Claus

I fell, stood up and moved on 
However, safety first
I will give it a try 
but not push myself to do something that 
I think will put me in danger 
or is beyond my capacity.

We had lunch break at Molkenhaus.

My trophies in this adventure include
1. a swollen and wounded knee
2. bruises all over
3. an unforgetable stunt due to false use of forward break
4. amazing picture perfect view of autumnn in forest mountain
5. a whole new concept of how to ride a bike

Hamburg revisited


We take the first regional train available for Länder ticket to Hamburg. The ticket was bought in the train station. It is cheaper since we got it from the machines. Otherwise, we have to pay service charge if we bought it through the counter. One Länder ticket is good for 5 persons. It took us 2.5 hours to reach Hamburg. There is a Mc Donalds in the train station. It is a good place to set as meeting place for friends coming from different directions.

We
walked around the lake,
passed through Rathaus( municipal office),
floated over the lake to their mini aritificial look beach (by public ferry),
dropped by a Enrico's favorite Portugese restaurant,
crossed the myterious tunnel (open for walk only on Weekends),
watched the city in different angles,
felt the cry at the ruined church, and
enjoyed hot drinks for the rest of the day(restaurants and coffee shops are open on Sunday).

We thought we loose our legs after walking and trekking like forever.
