Roll out of Lechenich and let the ride unfold: first past the castle of Landesburg Lechenich, then into the Nörvenicher Wald nature reserve. Onward you spin through the Kiesgrube am Buchenhof nature reserve before meeting the Erft river. With 59.8 km ahead and more than half of it unpaved, the mix of paved and unpaved keeps every turn fresh. Then it's back to Lechenich, right where you started.
