#silkroadmountainrace — Public Fediverse posts

Atlas Mountain Race is fakenews. Hasn't really happened yet. Still too fresh.

Any content from it still needs to mature. Like good cheese. Kyrgyz cheese, in fact.

Yes. Like Kurut! 😅

So here is my well cured day 11 report of the last Silk Road Mountain Race. 😉😄

Während andere schon festeweg Jahresrückblicke und was sonst noch posten, bin ich gerade mal bei Tag 10 des Silk Road Mountain Races angelangt... 🙈😅

Gerade frisch veröffentlicht: Day 10 Recap mit Start aus Naryn, über den Iyri-Suu und dann hinein in das Tal des Smaller Naryn River...

This amazing country. Never ending pistes and wide horizons ever and ever again.

Here along the Chinese border. Leaving the Blue Caravan behind.

That view... 🤩

... was super-hard earned, though.

Slowly also populating my Silk Road Mountain Race album on flickr:

On another note:

Felt suspiciously amazing for a first ride after Kyrgyzstan today!

Apparently l slacked so hard there that it was indeed a pure high altitude camp? 🙈😎😅

Can you do a more typical „bikepacking bike in Kyrgyztan“ photo than one leaning against a Yurt? #BAAY (Bike against a Yurt) instead of #BAAW 😅😀

To tent or not to tent (at the Silk Road Mountain Race) - that is the question.

A few ponderings alongside some photos of my really lovely camp in Kyrgyzstan:

Silk Road Mountain Race. Wow - what an adventure!

When I applied for the race I wasn’t really sure whatfor. There was no really strong „why“.

Wrote this and quite a bit more on my Insta (sorry, Mastodon, Threads and Bluesky simply don't allow enough characters even for such super short story telling). So hit the link for the words and the short video reel of my first thoughts on the race.

@ArboristManuel Als nächstes stehen dann das #SilkRoadMountainRace in Kirgistan und das Race around Austria #RAA auf dem Rennkalender. Letzeres ist in diesem Jahr auch gleich die #Ultracycling Weltmeisterschaft.

Ansonsten ist man auf www.Dotwatcher.cc gut informiert.

While we're on the topic of retro and iconic Headshok Cannondales: This rig was ridden in no less of a race as last year's #silkroadmountainrace:

Looking foreward to a talk happening in #Kiel on March 8th:
#AdventureTalk with Martin #BikeTourGlobal and Nils Thomsen. A talk and get-together about #atlasmountainrace and #silkroadmountainrace powered by #KielDawnPatrol.
