Left Helmstedt around 10am and headed towards Magdeburg, but went wrong somewhere and ended up in completely the wrong direction, in fact going back towards Helmstedt!!
Following the requisite mid-course correction, a fairly brisk ride before the weather reverted to what seems to have become the norm: rain, rain and more rain. At one stage I had to come off to re-fuel and took the opportunity to dry my gloves on the engine.
Cracked on in the rain and eventually left the motorway and headed for Potsdam which I knew was south of Berlin. Leaving Werder (just south of Potsdam), had to leave the road and take shelter in the forest!
Couldn't see a damn thing...
An enormous angry thunder & lightening storm ensued with very heavy rain for about 15 minutes.
Peg hiding in the forest!
A lot of roadworks on the motorway slowed down progress, but eventually made it to my destination around 6pm
Blog is very professional. Looking forward to next chapter. Xx
