Endurance
My bike will be 15 years old in June, but it has already reached a milestone today: 100,000 km. For this I sat on the bike for 4340 hours (about half a year) and was on the road 3154 days. (By now it should be clear that I like numbers.) Only 522 times was the…

Ore mountains 2022
A few weeks ago I took the chance in more wooded areas than around my current residence to hike more through the forest again. And in autumn it’s also worth keeping your eyes open for food. There weren’t any blackberries, raspberries or blueberries, but there were plenty of mushrooms around. We didn’t want to take…

Thuringia 2010 (2)
It was good to get out on the day, the colors were just great. And I guess I enjoyed the sunshine in October. Without the picture I would completely miss the memories of the day. But what I’ve been thinking about now is how often I probably wasn’t outside back then, despite the nice weather.…

Germany/Switzerland 2014
We visited friends in Switzerland and went there by bike. Crossing the border is also part of it, here we are between the countries and between Waldshut and Koblenz. It’s not the most photogenic place.

Racism in the middle of society — Ronny Errmann
Actually I wanted to meet a friend tonight who has his job at the university in Central Europe and wanted to go to a friends wedding at the weekend and wanted to see some other friends before then. But as the meetup didn’t work, I can write a little bit about racism. Racism is the […]…

Germany 2011
If you go on a business trip to Hawaii (and the North American East Coast on the way back) and live 250 kilometres away from Frankfurt Airport, why not cycle to the airport instead of taking the train? And while you’re at it, why not go wild camping too? Having experience of long bike rides…

The life under our feet
I find geology interesting, especially how slowly the earth (has) changed. Hence the many time-lapse videos, even though they can only cover much shorter periods of time. The stone in the photo is debris from a tunnel construction and contains so many fossilised ammonites. These lived 240 million years ago (Triassic – shell limestone) in…
