Bear with me, this thread has a point.

What I noticed yesterday in Munich, so many parking cars...
For a month now, we wrote down how often we used the car and compared to the cost of car sharing. Doesn't look too well for an own car. Just the car sharing offer here in the rural area isn't optimal 😕

Today we cycled the M-Wasserweg from #Gmund to #Munich .
We went to Gmund by train and had a wondeful ~70km cycling route along the river #Mangfall , through or along a couple of villages, through forests - and finally the last part along the river #Isar to Munich.
The whole ride took us ~5h including all stops and it was a real joy to do it. Next time, I should just eat more .. as usual. And - no car needed again.
Back home from Munich again with the #BayerischeRegioBahn .
