We did a 60 km loop out of Bregenz Austria towards the alps, again following a pathway along the Rhine for part of the way. Today was Sunday and the cyclists were out in droves. Cycling is very popular here and there are bike paths or lanes almost everywhere. There were serious cyclists but also many families and trailers.
A smooth and fast pathway, we had the wind behind us and could easily do 35 kms/hr.
Lovely villages and the alps in the background.
A nice lunch spot beside a vineyard.
We went for a walk after the ride to check out the lakeside activities. We found the lakefront opera stage being prepared for Rigoletto. Unfortunately we will miss it as it doesn’t start until mid July. It is an amazing head complete with articulated jaw and hands. Not sure where the orchestra goes?
Clowns can be so scary looking.

It all looks like fun. Is it more relaxed than Italy? Enjoy
The trails do keep you away from traffic but sometimes they are crowded with people and bikes so it’s slow going. I (GG) am totally relaxed in Italy. 🙂
