These pages contain reports, maps and pictures of my longer (cycling) trips as well as shorter cycling excursions. For starters, I also recommend the chronological overview and some highlighted reports. If you are more interested in bicycles you might want to have a look at some pictures of bikes I built for myself or for friends. For alpine cyclists I made a "collection" of mountain passes mainly in the Alps and Pyrenees, which are drawn into a map together with the bike trips. A visual overview is given by a map with all bike tours for which there are reports on this site.
I wish you a lot of fun.

Alpen 2015 - I, CH, F, A
Es war mal wieder Zeit für eine Radtour in den Alpen, das Wetter war die 17 Tage Ende Juni bis Mitte Juli hervorragend, nur einmal erlebte ich nachmittags einen leichten Regenschauer. Umgekehrt war es mittags allerdings oft sehr heiss, in den Tälern zeigte mein Tacho/Thermometer regelmässig über 40 Grad an. Nach einer Bahnfahrt ab München (mit Umsteigen in Zürich und Visp) startete ich am späten Nachmittag in Martigny. read more.
