October
No more trips planned for this year, bicycle trips that is. We might still do some travelling, but sans velo. So I should certainly take advantage of nice days to get in some day rides.
Ride 109 - October 3, 2018
It was a grey day but I was motivated to get out on my bike by the monthly challenge on the Cycle 365 site, selfie-reflecties. As the name says, a reflection with yourself and your bike in the picture. Here I am at the BMW Tower.
Ride 110 - October 6, 2018
Demonstration in Munich for more attention to ecological concerns in the coming elections - against pesticides, factory farming, bee mortality, air pollution.
Ride 111 - October 8, 2018
A late afternoon ride in the English Garden, looking for autumn colors. The trees are still very green for October, it seems to me. But now they are beginning to color.
Ride 112 - October 9, 2018
A nice overcast day, perfect for the Botanical Garden
Ride 113 - October 12, 2018
A ride to the Hirschgarten beer garden for a picnic lunch in the warm sunshine, almost too warm to sit in the sun.
Ride 114 - October 13, 2018
A ride to Nymphenburg Palace, lots of people there on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Lots of bikes parked outside, too. Bikes aren't allowed in the park.
Ride 115 - October 18, 2018
The little shed where I keep my bike is nicely framed in colorful leaves now. Took a ride to the recycling center to get rid of an old e-toothbrush.
Ride 116 - October 19, 2018
Riding through the Olympic Park on our way to the Botanical Garden. Wonderful autumn feeling, but it's getting cooler and I'm afraid soon it will no longer be pleasant.
Ride 117 - October 20, 2018
Another mild autumn day - good for a ride to Westpark
Ride 118 - October 22, 2018
This time a picture of Janos on our beautiful ride along the Isar, probably our last longer ride for the season - or year.
Ride 119 - October 31, 2018
After a brief interlude of bad weather and an infection, one last ride for October, again in the English Garden, our default destination for a leisurely cycle away from traffic.
That was it for October, and as I had hoped, a month of beautiful colors and many sunny days. Most of my rides were not long, just around town, but it felt good to be in the saddle so often this time of year.
