Blog - Harz (Germany)
Every once in a while me and my friends from university go on a trip to somewhere. In 2009, when my wife and I got married, they all came along to Moscow:
Two years later they went on a mountain biking trip to West Germany, which I unfortunately couldn't make it to… This year, though, I could :)
We chose a spot right in between the Netherlands and Prague, namely the Harz, which proved to be ideal for mountain biking:
The weather was mainly rainy, though, so besides visiting Dora-Mittelbau, a former Nazi concentration camp, we mainly ate wurst, drank beer, and played some games :)
Especially the mountain biking, a first for me, was great fun. We climbed about 900 meters in total, and I set a new downhill personal record of ~70 km/h :D Hopefully with better weather next time we'll be able to go even faster, even longer, and enjoy ourselves even more :)
