    Sunshine and no wind ... it doesn't get much better for cycling at this time of year. What a beautiful place to visit on such a great day. And downhill all the way home. 🙂
    I see you still have the Brooks Cambium saddle on it, I guess you must be used to it now. I couldn't adapt to it so put a leather Brooks on it which was gathering dust in my shed - I can't remember which model but it made a world of difference!
    Thanks for posting this video and (a little late) Happy New Year.
    Cheers👍🏼

      Thank you for your message! It was so nice to finally get out after being sick. ☀️
      Indeed, I am still using the C17. I got kind of used to it and experimented a bit with its positioning. It is okay, for the time being. I would love to have a leather brooks or even a Gilles Berthoud but have just not prioritized this upgrade recently.
      I also had moments where I was thinking of stealing the old Brooks saddle from my less is more bike for the Brompton, but no. 😁 Nice to hear that your dusty Brooks leather saddle has been given a new purpose!
      Cheers 🚲

    Servus! Glad you're feeling better. I went snowboarding in Tirol just before Weihnachts, but spent the holidays at home. I did a couple of chilly bike rides during the holidays, and I'm building another 26" all-rounder for more rides soon. It's been so gray and cold here in die Oberpfalz, so I'm jealous of your sunny day ride.

      Servus and thanks. Snowboarding sounds awesome! I also want to finally learn snowboarding or skiing after moving to Bavaria from the flat north of Germany.
      I wish you a lot of fun with your 26" allrounder! Working on a bike build sounds also like a very good thing to do during this time of the year. If my workshop was inside, I would probably also be working on my Surly's too short brake hose and Rohloff shifter cables. And maybe installing a SON Ladelux.
      Happy new year and hopefully nice sunny days in the Oberpfalz soon!

    🎉🎉🎉 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! So happy to see the Brompton out and about! What a beautiful ride! I’ve been riding my Brompton everyday since I got it - through cold and rainy days and windy afternoons where I live… Looking forward to more videos and getting acquainted with your part of Bavaria!

      Thank you!! 🎆🚲🫶 Bikes are meant to be ridden, aren‘t they? And some good maintenance and cleaning here and there helps

    I had planned to ride my Brompton, but like you was sick.

    • @cycgeist

      I hope you have recovered, too. No point in riding bikes when sick.

    I'm amazed how you keep your nice trousers so clean from the chain! I recently rode an A-Line Brompton but the C line 6-speed like yours is far nicer, much comfier/better for hills. I just need to convince myself to spend my money :) Thanks for sharing another peaceful video, Happy New Year to you hope and hope you had a Frohe Weihnachten!

      Thank you so much! There are some stains caused by the chain from time to time. This is when „Dr. Beckmanns Fleckenteufel“ comes to the rescue. 😂
      For me it also took some time to convince myself of a Brompton and get the money together. Once I had saved up the money, it was a must-have for me. Because I can take it anywhere with me to ride and explore!
      The only question remaining at that point was the color. 😄

    Great video. It’ll take a while get to 5000 subscribers, but if you continue making content like this you should at least get into four figures.

      Thank you!! Haha, I thought it is good to set some ambitious goals.
