In 2nd last frame there is a really short slide show of some beautiful stuff we saw in the area. Rest are static photos embedded in blog post.

I ran a marathon, figuratively speaking to create this blog post...any Wordpress blogger would understand me. :eek:

Other than the fact Freiburg has a well-preserved medieval core and is in the wine-growing region, is smaller, there were others reasons why we chose it:

It embarked on an aggressive cycling infrastructure improvement plan a few decades ago and has large proportions of its locals cycling regularily now.

Also a personal connection, my partner's father studied there many decades ago.

Since it's in southwestern Germany, a convenient base to go to other countries nearby.

Wow, VERY cool - and well done (worth the pain, I think). ;) Loved the pictures.
