The cannachopper, Netherlands attempt to locate cannabis fields with high-tech sensors. My favorite headline of the day comes from the country of Switzerland, where a container exploded carrying the swine flu on a train. Fortunately it was the non-mutated type. And we do have a confirmed case in Regensburg, just an hour south. More importantly, today is May day, and here in Germany it is a historic day of civil unrest and another holiday, spent either protesting or sleeping off the debaucherous shenanigans committed the night before. The best I saw as I rolled through rural little farm towns in heavy fog this morning were tp’d bushes and trees, and street painting.
No racing for me this or next weekend, Angela will be racing this weekend in the first stop on the OTV cup series in Bavaria. Then starting May16, every weekend is booked until the middle of July. I finally bought a 1:50k map of the hiking and biking trails in the area, so I am trying to put together a rather large ride manana, seeking out primo singletrack.
