Shifting Gears: Day Seven
Morning brew up to contemplate and plan the days ride
A good breakfast to start the day
A few artistic touches help brighten the mood
Suburbia somewhere. It wasn’t all grassy banks and lovely views. Suburbs confuse satnavs which tend to get too excited when given choices.
Four routes to choose from. Ours is the yellow biker on a blue background.
Great to see families out on their bikes.
A bit busy in Bonn which was the centre of the old West German Government.
Cologne Cathedral
Beerfest on the banks of the Rhine at Cologne.
Quick Brew up for a lunchtime break. It was a bit cold by the water and I needed some internal warmth. Soon to be had by cycling, getting those muscles used.
Sunday garage lunch. A fuel station for me, but not the best.
There’s no confusion about cycle paths in Cologne
Up and over a major road bridge out of Cologne.
An early glimpse of the romantic Rhine.
Pretty Unkel. Cycling to the stopover
Here it is!
A perfect antidote to plastic keto. Medium Rare steak in comfort.
Ketones all in the range today. Its of course expected and I wasnt concerned at any point on the journey about DKA
Caught out with food and insulin estimation at lunch. harder with pens and relying on long acting insulin.
A lovely covered outdoor restaurant at the gastehaus
