Short description

🌻 Erfurt or Tuscany? 🇮🇹✨

The shortest route of the GoB Collection – but don’t be fooled: short & spicy, technically demanding, and packed with views that’ll make you wonder if you accidentally teleported to Italy. 🍷🚴‍♀️

Whether you want a mini-vacation spin or to go full gas until your calves are on fire – both are possible. One thing’s for sure: micro adventure incoming.

Start & finish? At the supermarket – honestly, what more could you ask for?
Snacks, fueling, cold drinks before or after your ride. Fully stocked. 🥤🍫

The opening kilometers serve up smooth asphalt, Gucci gravel, and a few curves – perfect to warm up. Or maybe you want to go full send right away? It’s your turn.

Km 9 – things get real.
Ride, push, or carry – anything goes.
At the top: fields, meadows, narrow and wide lines along the Weißbach ridge.
But watch out: overgrown ruts, nasty roots, surprise potholes. Find your line, stay sharp. ⚡

Km 11.8 – first hurdle.
In the forest you’ll hit challenge #1: hike-a-bike or jump it.

Km 13 – sharp bend, dodge the barrier, and welcome to the “Path of Biodiversity.”
Glorious gravel invites you to hammer the pedals – or, if you’re chill, check out the labeled trees along the way. Pedal + learn = win. 🌳📚

Km 14.8 – Checkpoint unlocked.
On the left: a green box with a stamp inside. Mark yourself, snap a pic with the stamp, upload it (story Inst, mention us) – and get 45 seconds bonus time. (Takes about 25 sec, not a bad deal, right?) ⏱️

From here to Km 18.5, you’re weaving through fields, forest, and meadows up to the Bienstädter Warte.
If it’s wet? Holy sh*t – good luck. If it’s dry? Stunning views all the way. 🙏🌄

Km 19.2 – Safety first.
The most demanding segment awaits. Hands locked on the brakes, focus maxed. Rollercoaster vibes, plus hurdles #2 & #3 – pure action. 🎢🌲

After the descent comes the boss fight: 1 km of pain.
Eyes shut, grit teeth, push through.
Need to hop off? Totally fine – run it.
Stay in the saddle? You’re insane. Respect. 🤯🔥

Km 26.5 – the highlight.
A dreamy valley with a refreshing stream crossing awaits. Then roll on Strade-Bianche-style gravel – chef’s kiss. 🤌

All that’s left: cross the highway, eat up the final dusty gravel sections, cruise right past the airport – then it’s full speed into Erfurt.
Cool down… or one last push? Your call.

👉 Done. Short, intense, beautiful.
