Biking, Day 1

This was the Backroads Bavaria and the Tirol biking trip.  We rode from a random spot about 45 minutes outside of Munich (taking a bus to there) to the Tegernsee, a lovely lake.  Sadly, it was dreary and rained most of the day (letting up just as we rode into the hotel). Luckily, during our walk around Munich, we came across a huge sporting goods store, and, based on the weather forecast, bought new and better rain jackets.  We were very glad we did. I didn't take any pictures on the ride, as stopping in the rain seemed like not a great idea.  However, here are some views from walking around near our hotel.






This is one of many lakes in this part of Germany, all well-known vacation locations.  I think all these houses are vacation apartments, though there is clearly a "real" town there too.

Today's ride: 40 km, 1600 ft elevation gain.
