Being on call sucks
Being on call means being stuck at home, near home, at work or near the office. Especially it’s the third weekend this month… However, I have found a way to ride my mountain bike and stay within acceptable distance in case of call.
I don’t know how long it’s going to take until I have enough doing such tours, but I have to admit that the shape on the map is interesting; maybe I should draw some pictures on the map.
I forgot to mention that I didn’t allow myself to ride multiple times on the same road segment. 🙂

Here’s a view of the meetup point, shot from the direction of Scott’s Pub:
To get there, the easiest is to walk and take the elevator from Plateau du Saint Esprit down to Grund.
Note: this map is not definitive. We’ll probably do some detours and won’t stick to the blue highlight. If you happen to be late, it would be an idea to have an access to this map so I can tell you where to find us (or which number we are close to).
CFL-29 hike
Thanks to Stefanie for organizing this hiking trip. Everyone in the group was lively and joyful – once again it proved that nice people attract nice people 😉
Meetup was at the train station in Luxembourg City.
The train was so busy – I never saw so many people in a train in this country. We left the train in Colmar-Berg to follow the CFL 29 and we miserably failed right at the beginning. So we walked an extra hour because we didn’t decide to cross the Alzette river. Also, we’ve been very lucky with the weather, yay!

According to the GPS, we walked 14.72 km.
Here’s the cfl29 GPX track file.
After
The return train was so busy, we had to stay on the steps (the normal fine is three thousand Euros for blocking the way). Arrived in Luxembourg City, I rented a Veloh bike to go back home and suddenly I heard someone shouting my name. It was a old mate from high school who was visiting Luxembourg and we didn’t see each other for at least 15 years. We decided to meet on the next day. Small world 😉
