The good news was that the expected rain stayed away but it was a wild ride over the tops with low cloud.
Also good news, no umleitungs today !
Bad news, they just closed a couple of roads completely with no alternative diversion! The first detour took us an extra 40 minutes, the second one saved us 30 minutes but did mean a motorway stretch.
The only stops today were fluid (petrol and bladder) and a stop to 'layer up' for the cold.
John expressed his feelings that forest glades were much more hygienic for bladder stops than the motorway restplatz. The general agreement was that neither of us particularly enjoyed the days ride.
From the quaint charm of last night's historic hotel to tonight's where no food or drink is available, we are the only guests with only German and Russian being spoken. The room is pleasant and the bikes are safely hidden away in a car port though.
