Roll out of Ruhland and let the ride unfold: past the Gutshaus, along the Schwarze Elster, then on through the Hohenleipisch nature reserve. Next up are Der Loben and the Grünhaus mining landscape, both nature reserves, before the loop brings you back to Ruhland. It's 76.2 km, entirely paved, with 238 m of climbing along the way.
