Time for a Decision

Fürstenberg - Gross Quassow

Another day of good cycling in spite of a few more cobblestones than in the past days and bits of unpaved bike paths. Today again cooler and greyer, rain seemed imminent.

If only my bike were cooperating. Today it was less dependable than yesterday and I was becoming more worried what I would do if the e-support were to fail completely. With a regular bicycle we would go to the next bicycle shop, but for repair work on an e-bike with a Canadian system we would have to return to Berlin or Munich. Nevertheless, the bike saw me through to the end of the day.

We found a room in small inn in Gross Quassow, a very small and quiet village with brick farm houses, some thatch roofs, a brick church, a storks nest, splendid front-yard gardens and much open space. When we were in our room the rain finally came, a veritable downpour, and after the downpour the sun came out in time for us to take an evening walk and enjoy the sights the village had to offer.

Time to make a decision - continue with an undependable bike? And if not, what then?
