Berlin Velothon 2015

Posters along the 120km cycle route , as soon as Knud saw this he just had to enter, how lucky we were here in Berlin this very weekend!
Racing towards the finish

And of course there were the sponsors merchandising stalls
Cycle just about finished, looking back down towards Charlottenburg Tor , never seen the road so empty

In the scheme of logistics this would take some beating. Started in 2008 this is now the second largest cycle event in Europe. 15,000 entrants, over 250,000spectators. Two routes,60km & 120km . The entire route is blocked from regular traffic, yes thats right 120km totally blocked! all day ! and some parts like the major boulevard through Berlin has been blocked for days while they set up the start and finish areas.
Knud had a very enjoyable ride, of course could not help himself, managed the 120km in 3hours 25 minutes, including 10 minutes repairing rear wheel!
