Cycling vacation

Tens of millions do it here in Germany. On the way to work in the morning, to the supermarket in the evening, to the quarry pond at the weekend: cycling is probably the Germans' favorite leisure activity. Cycle paths have been greatly expanded in recent years. Since the successes of Jan Ullrich, Erik Zabel & Co. at the latest, many people have been getting on their bikes with sporting ambitions. The models are becoming ever more sophisticated, aerodynamic and lightweight. The reason for the boom is obvious: cycling allows you to be out in the fresh air, in nature, do something for your own health and avoid traffic jams on congested roads.
