Biking and Wine - A Great Combination

With the temperature in the low 70's and the promise of one more day of sunshine, we took off this morning to visit some wine areas close to Freiburg.  The bike trails are amazing; we visited multiple towns, for the most part, totally separated from cars.  Our hosts have monster bikes that everyone seems to use - they weigh a bunch but have baskets for carrying things (like wine).  We found a rose and a white wine that we loved and bought a bottle of each.  There were very few hills so it was a relaxing day in the sunshine.  On the way home we stopped for zweifelkuchen (onion cake) and new wine which is wine that has just been fermenting for about a week.  The rains comes tomorrow.
