Last couple of kms uphill from Mainz to 220m ASL through (early) blossoming fields of Brassica napus subsp. napus.

Back in a previous life as a suit, I’d often finish a day trip to clients by flying back into Frankfurt in the early evening and enjoy this time of year for views of these (and acres and acres of cherry blossom) from 1200m on final approach.

These days I’m a gravel biker, so it’s a more intimate encounter.

At least twice a week
