Tuesday 28th May. Straubing to Zaundorf. 80km.














A bright sunny day and another great ride, except for a 5km retracement of our way to recover Les's visijacket which had fallen off the back of her bicycle. We came across a herd of sheep on the track, which were being expertly manoeuvred by two very clever sheep dogs. They really are very skilled! There are lots of mountains in the distance as we ride along, but the track is mostly as flat as a tack. On the track, cyclists always greet us, and you know when they are locals because they always say "Gruss Got!", which means "Gods greetings!".  In Deggendorf, once again, we were guided through the city by a kind German cyclist. Tomorrow, we should reach Passau in Austria. Stayed in Pension Stanek, Zaundorf, which was at the top of a big hill.

Route: Straubing - Bogen - Deggendorf - Niederalteich - Winzer - Hofkirchen - Zaundorf.
