Stunning, Kingtom! Switzerland is stupidly pretty and your photos do it justice.

Coming back to earth with a bump, here's my run-in to home this morning.

Forgive the silly question, but in the image above what is the difference between the 3 tracks? I assume that would be a multi-use path next to the stream, but what are the other two?

That's a very smooth cyclingpath 40km along the river (Rhein). The left one is unpaved. There they ride horses or walk the pedestrians. On thd right side is a 'entry', which you find every ~5km.

And yes, i knoe and i'm very happy to life here and ride streets like we have here. But there are so many beautiful places on earth...

Tasmania- Tasmanian Tiger

The thylacine was the largest known carnivorous marsupial of modern times. It is commonly known as the Tasmanian tiger or the Tasmanian wolf. Native to continental Australia, Tasmania, and New Guinea, it is believed to have become extinct in the 20th century. Wikipedia

Hi TonyM

It's Christchurch on the South Island of New Zealand. And yes, it is very nice, we are super lucky, great mtb and road cycling and plenty of other great outdoor options. But then I'm biased.

Thanks for the nice comments 👌😁👍
