Neuhardenbergnacht or a tour of a different kind

Volkmar My friend had reported in recent days, and a trip to Neuhardenberg invited to Neuhardenbergnacht . We are already well no longer together, and it is not a question of whether I go with him. The only downside to the point, is that Volker has not recumbent. I decide to ride upright. So who is only on stories from the deck of cycling can stop reading here: o)
We meet at the station clock to 16 Mahlsdorf. I had rigged up a nice route that will lead us to not too many detours to the target, because we want to see the show and the fireworks be so as against 19 clock. After all, 60 km to ride and race, we do neither. So we continue on well known routes of Hönow and Altlandsberg to Strausberg.

The Drängelgitter seem to be right for motorists not an obstacle.

The R1 behind Garzin with his bandage and the mobile good hard shoulder.

goods we have an overcast sky and cold 14 degrees drove off, the weather improved and increasingly we take a small break in the Buckow Schermützelsee. So many times I have been here, like now I've seen the lake before. The morning and evening hours are just the best! While I will continue on the R1, Volkmar points to the map on a small trail through the Stobbertal, E11 the European path. I'm skeptical at first, but with the Aufrechtrad can try it at least. The roads are good mobile and we will pass the injection Hagen mill. I had secretly hoped that we get here neat Choriner beer, unfortunately, is already closed.

The Stobbertal expands and I am a photo of a bison herd. The trail is varied, sometimes sandy, short pavement sections and sometimes we have to push on an incline. We pass a sign saying "Neuhardenberg 10 km," too far is not so. Unfortunately, we lost our way and make a very nice detour. At some point we're back on a road near Neuhardenberg, it is already dark, and countless cars line the road.

We meander through vast amounts between pedestrians and close to our bikes at the Castle Neuhardenberg . The whole castle park is full of people and a band plays country music.

After 20 minutes queuing we finally have our well-earned beer, is to show time and we still go to church Schinkel.

Then the show begins the "Plasticiens flounces" , huge fish and a sea serpent appear. The fish are playing with a small pearl, appears to a rather dangerous looking snake and in addition to smaller marine animals, the pearl "eats". Only a giant octopus can defeat the snake and the fish play again with the pearl. This rather simple plot is clever lighting effects and appropriate background music an unforgettable Experience. The subsequent fire station off the lock gate is composed of pyrotechnics champion Joachim Berner and great.

Here's a video of it, unfortunately we are too close to a box and the sound is lousy :-(

After a grand finale, the fireworks against 23 clock over and the crowds make their home. We grab our bikes and pave our way through the crowd, who flock to their cars. We want to side roads to the station Strausberg Nord and expect that the continuous flow of vehicles at some point towards B1 and B158 turns. Nevertheless, We have quite a while in a respectful Distance of vehicle convoys of date, we are far and wide, the only cyclist. At some point, finally enters a retirement, it is clear and we hear in many places call nightingales. In Strausberg we drive on the airfield, here is an airfield party came to an end and a few people sitting in front of closed beer stalls and do not go home. Arriving at the station the train to Berlin is already there and after half an hour I say goodbye to Volkmar. At half past 2, I'm falling for a total of 98 kilometers by bike at home and happy in bed. It was a beautiful day with many new impressions.
