Great Journey 🏍🏍 Day 2
First losses are to be announced:
The first place for the tidiest team member was given to the lady riding along. This makes the score 1:0 and she takes the overall lead.

But let's start from the beginning:
After a cosy evening in Heidelberg (what an enchanting little town!), today begins with a tour through the Neckar valley and the Odenwald. We have a picnic at a nature park, swim by one of the many lakes and take a short diversions to catch a few more curves.

Then, in the afternoon, I hear the unenthusiastic sound in my helmet: "My motorbike key is gone! Sure, we are modern and drive keyless. And as of today, even in the literal sense: key-less.
We reconstruct the course of events like this: It starts to rain, we stop, put on our rain suit, (from here on we mean "he") just leave the key in the suitcase and drive off. But at some point we lose the key. Because as long as the key still has radio contact, the motorbike will drive. Unfortunately, even if it no longer has contact. You just can't turn it off, the motorbike. We drive the half hour back to the removal site, slowly scanning the wet road surface for a key. Nothing. And order a new key. Thanks @roewermotorrad in Berlin for the quick support!

The good thing at the end: we have a spare key with us. It's not as comfortable, but it should be usable until Berlin.

And all those who know me well have long known: I won't be able to hold the lead in the "order" category for long.
