The Tour jacket arrived safely and in wonderful condition along with my two pants, which had a short visit in Gosport for hemming.
@steelworker enclosed some Tourmusic CD's for all of us. Thanks a lot.
As I heard The Dickies and Hüsker Dü in my youth, I added this first into "Autofahrmusik" rotation.Didn't know anything about Kinky Friedman. Found a great german article about him in the Süddeutsche Zeitung here.
The Tour jacket is located in the Ruhrarea for the next days.
For those of you, who are interested in public transportation, it looks like this .
Population density is high in the Ruhrgebiet, with some green axis! Hope to show some of them, wearing the jacket.
It was raining cats and dogs this evening. Feeding the fishes was the only outside action to capture…..
Think I will say it twice: This jacket is amazing! I am a happy man.

First day with this jacket was a great pleasure.
I have definitely no skills in taking fit pics. Outtake :D.
The Terror jacket with 801 and Triple Works.
To address the challenge of pics even better, I decided to hang-up.
This is Ruhrsandstone from a quarry not far from our home.

Up for some fresh bread for breakfast. My daughter enjoyed the ride.
We live in a suburb. The market is not as hip as in town, but you can always have a conversation with your neighbors. Met my parents there.
Look who has got the jacket on…
Here is the Möllershof- My kids do pottery there with my father.
Cherrys are ripe very early this year.
I took the opportunity and hang-up the jacket on a typical farmyard wall. Sandstone and handmade bricks on top.
This is a funny wall. Look at the horseshoe fence .
Then across the city using the Autobahn to pick up some food for the fishes.
Japanese packaging always has my attention .
Took the departure "University" on my way back . Our Technische Hochschule was build in the fields only 50 years ago, but has a major influence on the economical structural change in our region since then.
The jacket can be found hanging here also .
Afterwards primary school party.
Throwing on cans can be much more fun if you’re o have the right background…
End of the day

This is shaping up to be an excellent tour stop.
Your town looks lovely, Aetas.

Another day, another daughter and another pant (715.
The rest is the same procedure than yesterday morning.
When we came home, we had to face the truth that play-time was over.
My lovely wife slipped on the stairs and the whole day needed to be reorganized.Overdue homework
Laundry
And some daily evening routines.

Took the bicycle to get to work today.
The way by car is a mess with traffic lights, road works and traffic jam instead.For ten kilometers I can ride on the "Rheinischen Esel".
It is a disused railway line, established 1880. The railway line was closed 1982 and reopened for public in 2000.
A mixture of cycling without obstacles and tranquility.Back in civilization, the Tour jacket plays 'Hare and the Tortoise' with me ….. ;).
