    Today my wife and I made a short trip from our home via the pre-Alps area to a wonderful lake called "Erlaufsee". The weather was great and the temperature went up to 27 degrees celsius. Really fine riding conditions.
    At the lake we had some delicious pastries with a coffee. The pastry is called "Bananenschnitte". It is a kind of cake with a sponge cake base covered with jam an then bananas in a vanilla pudding and whipped cream covered with chocolate coating. Incredibly delicious. :yum The lake itself is also unbelievable. Absolutely clear and clean water with lots of different fish and some ducks.
    In sum we did 220 km today and I had the possibility to test my new bike under different conditions. Highway, country roads, alpine sections with narrow curves and hairpin bends. It performed again very well. I like to ride it.
    In the following some impressions.

    @Armando Morales: You are rights Armando. The lake is a real natural jewel.
    The bike is a 2024 BMW R12 Nine T. My wife bought it for herself, but she didn't like the kind of vibrations it produces and got some problems with her neck on distances greater then 300 km. Therefore she switched after 2.200 km to a Yamaha XSR 900 and now I have got the "luxury" problem to own 2 BMW's. :p
    She is happy and I am too.;)
    Some tech specs:
    1200 ccm, 109 HP, 115 Nm, 220 kg
