[2/2] E-Bike Tour Elbe-Lübeck-Kanal und Ladeweile
Good Morning! I’ve packed a little instant coffee in bags like this. it comes ready-made in small bags, but that is relatively expensive. and the water is already boiling! It didn’t take 3 – 4 minutes! it works fast with gas! The fact that the heat is carried up on the side of the Triangle is very efficient. * it goes even faster with the lid! * what concerns me on such a beautiful morning? come, everything in! in the long term I have to think of something else! I don’t always want to drink this instant coffee! * I already said that last year! * … and not out of this plastic cup either * there is now a new cup! * Milk, milk, milk, things are packed! It all took longer than I thought! it is now 9:45 am and off we go! yes it was a wonderful place here! I was standing down there on the right. My neighbor just waved to me. My camping neighbor is now my route for my next 65 kilometers, yes, in principle, I have three options … I drive to Lübeck 65 kilometers. I don’t know when I’ll be there …
Around 3:00 p.m. / 4:00 p.m.? then go back by train, but it will be very full, or go back by bike. I have enough battery. * enough battery? 😉 Here I have a range of 70 km and then I have the 625 battery with me, so I can reach 100 km again. I would even shoot over the target! or I’ll go to Bad Oldesloe, which means I’ll turn left at some point from the Elbe-Lübeck Canal in the direction of Bad Oldesloe and get on the regional train there. I have to see but I would like to drive through the Elbe-Lübeck Canal. yeah, I’m not going to go that fast either, I’m now driving about 18 km / h that’s enough because the ground is a bit uneven and I don’t want to damage my bike either.
Well, I will probably have the sun from behind afterward… not so cheap to film what you have to think about! if I had gone the other way around, no, that would not have worked with the meeting yesterday, here is another campsite, but no places right on the water at least not on this side, maybe on the other? here comes the first lock system that also belongs to the old salt road there was a sign … but there were people I didn’t want to film right now. what are those nice places there? between the canal and a lake, lovely! it drove past me this morning when I had had my coffee.
I’m not going any faster either, at around 15 km / h. Now I’ll take a short break first! I wanted to change the battery. (GoPro) I see that for the fourth time I am just taking a break, it is 10:55 am and I made a cheese roll like this for myself, something a dry affair! but I didn’t want to drag butter with me either! they are on the road with a big bike, i.e. a normal bike, and ride pretty snappy here, with 21 km / h I only have ECO on there is little going on here on the canal! You can hardly see any pedestrians moving! moving * not busy? * Gü (n) ster !? yes many, they grin at me, uh? I seem happy here. Yes, I am also! there he is again! ha, the fifth time! and he greets me every time! yes, there is also a campsite here but it is separated from the canal by a fence! yes, now I have a relatively flat surface! so that I can drive out my 25 km / h once.
There are still 44 kilometers to Lübeck, thank you, then I’ll ride my bike home from there, I’ll manage the 70 kilometers too! yes, a bit boring! I’ve already thought about driving along the street upstairs, but in the residential area … no, I’m now driving along the canal and doing this now! We are white bream now, bream! now it is slowly getting dark in Güster! something is drawing in! yes, it’s pretty humid today, I’ll take a little break! * Complaining phase * It’s pretty boring. There is at least one such small bend here, so you have the feeling that the landscape changes a bit otherwise, yes … it’s nice … but wait … yes, not much happens! now I could heat up a bit at 25/26 km / h here it is a bit more uneven again, and I have to slow down again. there are still 35 kilometers to Lübeck, so … it’s not that long either! iii a spider, help! there are some dung flies here too … I can already guess what that could mean! yes it goes on uiii, ah ahah! baba (?) barges can hardly be seen here! I haven’t seen any yet! on the other hand, some pleasure crafts, and I wonder why the pleasure craft are called. what you see there has not much to do with sport! sit behind the wheel and drink coffee all day long! and hopefully nothing else! oh, I had to brake under the bridge, suddenly there were such bumps and I would have destroyed my rims if I had driven through a full can hello hello yes, I’ve been to a campsite regularly for years, three to four times a year In Ratzeburg I usually drive there by car and there I always drive over a federal road and see this idyllic lake except for these strange buildings in the background yes that is this federal road B207 here again, like at the Werra valley bridge to see from a different perspective.
And not always from the car. I’ve always thought: “You have to go here!” with the bike you automatically pass many beautiful places! Owl town Mölln. yes, I’m an owl too and no lark here is the first cargo ship yes, after a long time a lock again the sport boat was just called ‘siesta’ I hope he (the captain) doesn’t take it literally! it is now noon, 12:30 p.m., nice and quiet here! yes, that is the lock in Behlendorf I can’t think of more! oh yes, by the way, I didn’t mention my saddle in my bike introduction – it’s the Selle Royal Lookin 3D and at first, I thought it wouldn’t work at all! my bum hurt so much when I got the bike so I rode my tour (Hamburg – Tübingen) … I’ve ridden everything so now I’ve gotten used to it, but strangely, I have to straighten myself out (sit properly on the saddle) and even with these leisure trousers (cotton) which are not at all optimal.
It works! I’ve always had one of these Brooks B17s in my eye, but I don’t feel like maintaining the saddle all the time, adjusting it somehow, or greasing it from above and below … no idea then you need a rain cover, can’t stand in the rain and then if it is stolen … (blah) no … I have enough to do with the chain maintenance, yes I have to take a look, sure another one (saddle) will come one day, at some point, it will be through. Moving, moving yes there are huts like that here from time to time but mostly without a shelter … hi hi hi nonsense what I’m telling you again * is that would be such a hut without a shelter * that will be Berkentin. hello hello, here I would have the chance to go to Bad Oldesloe and take a short cut I have now decided to continue to Lübeck. that means, I’ve made up my mind for a long time, and I haven’t made any other decision at all! * so far clear? in other words: that is freedom! * After Lübeck it is still – it is not that far – 18 km.
Then I keep looking the closer I get to Lübeck, the more cyclists come towards me. yes, the next thousand what do we have today? the…? .. At the beginning of July (04.07.2021) I have the bike for 13 months and 7,000 km. a lock system … Krummesee (Krummesse) now some boats are driving out of the lock. the so-called sport boats I’ve seen a lot of men with checkered shirts * or topless * I seem to have missed something in terms of fashion! the grass tickles your feet haha (wannabe) Swabian: I still have 10 kilometers to Lübeck … and then for me the topic … Elbe-Lübeck Canal through Elbe-Lübeck Canal is eaten here End. There it goes on with the Canaltrave I am now going to Lübeck I have changed the bank once after the route it continues here for whatever reason I think I downloaded an official route from a website. There was nothing on it, where to go on. where the diversion leads. I just keep going here now.
It’s so beautiful here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come here either. I am easily recognizable now in Lübeck. Battery (e-bike) is almost all. I still have 5%. I drove 65.5 km ok, the battery was not full this morning either, about 91% (500 Wh battery) oh a bus I drove around here once and had to go through three traffic lights that must have lasted 10 minutes and when I did was over there, I ran out of battery that was again a precision landing! Now it is time to change the battery first, and take care of the chain … oh I just see that the memory needs to be replaced (GoPro), and … I first eat my second cheese roll, yes the drive is quite dusty, and now I will once Roughly clean and then oil a little. you might see it. The rear sprocket, no the little wheel * chain guide wheel * that jumps over the chain, the chain jumps over it, the wheel no longer runs properly. normally, in the ‘forward drive’, of course, but something … that’s what I mean by care, that kind of annoys then it’s always good to have such wet wipes with you.
So that you can wipe your dirty hands again. yes, such a bummer but also … because I hardly use the large battery, uh uh, I didn’t look again to see whether it was charged. it’s only charged to 57% and … * optimal storage charge *;) yes and I still have 70 or 80 kilometers to go today. I think that’s not enough! well, then I’ll go to Bad Oldesloe or wherever? Just take a look! I’ve now picked out a Bauhaus (hardware store). where there should be power sockets whether they are also open on Sundays, that will turn out to be.
And now I have been navigated by Google Maps. Of course, once again the finest path quality, as if I hadn’t had that all day, man-o-man whether I charge there I don’t yet have to sit around for an hour and I only have my four-ampere charger with me, we have to look! fits! … Yes, all good, all good! (I’m annoyed!) You, you have to beg your way through here. they were just unloading, all doors open, no getting past. * sigh, my mood is not so good right now! Because of the battery actually, because I’m so stupid to drive a half-full battery through the area for two days. and here is a charging station this electricity is sponsored by ‘Bauhaus’ it charges! 52%, there it comes out, there it goes in! yes, now I’m building my chair. I also fetched a little water from the ice cream parlor and …
Just chill a little and think about how far it is and let me calculate the route again. and then I’ll see if I’m going to Bad Oldesloe or home (Hamburg) well, let’s see! the time is just the issue! It is now 3:30 p.m. Let’s wait until 4:30 p.m. yes, haha I’m looking at a couple of fences here on the campsite I liked it better it’s now 4:34 p.m., an hour later … one half a bottle of water later yes, I just found out that it had only just reloaded 13%, we just had 53% now we have 67% I assume that the plug was not in the right place! the charger got hot, lay in the sun, put it in the shade, and now I’m waiting a little longer so that I can at least get home in eco mode. even if it gets to 10 p.m. tonight, it doesn’t matter! The main thing is to ride a little bike! Oh, man! So, make sure that both batteries are full before you start driving! and I was bragging a while ago …
Yes, cool … I will still come safely to Hamburg and still shoot over the target … yes, yes, yes! Ah! Nothing ventured nothing gained! yes mistakes happen! It is early evening, 5:20 p.m. and the charging suddenly went faster after I plugged in the plug correctly. Oh, man! I now have 95%, no, sorry! 85% and I’m on my way now. It’s about 65 kilometers according to the plan. fits! Here we go! Yes! well recovered! Ha! I only have one problem: I urgently need water! and there are not as many cemeteries as in southern Germany. astonishingly smooth traffic here * for Sunday evening * * Reinfeld (Holstein) “Karpfenstadt” * I have now driven 40 minutes again, a bit much along the country road. I don’t care, I prefer to ride my bike than sit in a fully occupied train because you will also be rewarded with a small brook * Mühlenau * a cemetery here! * Reinfeld cemetery * what do I see there? What do my eyes see cool right at the entrance? aah! the water is very suitable for drinking if it is not drinking water, then it is on.
(I do not accept any liability for this!) This is not groundwater, but connected to the drinking water supply! Yes Perfect! It can go on. I was thirsty! A minute after I drove into Bad Oldesloe, I’m driving here on the Trave, on the Travewanderweg I didn’t expect that at all, and … I didn’t want to exchange it for a full train compartment either! now the sat nav takes me up to some kind of park. yes, OsmAnd calculated the route for me. … I haven’t looked exactly where it’s going either. leads me through such a park (the route) I have transferred to the Nyon a military cemetery oh, cobblestone here I was already my first video (with the e-bike), when I drove to Lübeck I also crossed this bridge ridden the “best hiking trail”! * The brook is called ‘Beste’ * yes! the OsmAnd app is just great! you can simply enter bluntly from A to B with the profile ‘balanced’ and then the route usually fits.
Incidentally, this is a forge building of a Waldorf School * Hamburg Bergstedt * this is a project that I also worked on. That was … when was that? 1992/1994 so the corner? Yes, exactly! I worked as a student or intern in an architecture office and drew everything in 3D. yes, nice to see it all again. I passed it here by accident. At that time, CAD was not even a matter of course. Back then, a lot was still drawn by hand.
where the route leads me everywhere? that’s interesting so very small steps in there, but I can get through! that should be the Ammersbek! so little going on now! Beautiful! I’ve never been here to a barn either !? I tell you ….. there are always surprises, not just driving the prepared routes, but also simply having a good navigation program plan it! yes, I say goodbye now. It’s getting too dark. I only have 12 kilometers left it was nice! It was a beautiful day! I also enjoyed the return trip very much. almost even better than on the Elbe-Lübeck Canal, thank you for watching and see you with the next video. See you!.
