#FS2019pastryride #3. I rode my Salsa Pistola to get some road miles in before the temperature drops next week. I stopped at the Bäckerei Moos in Rosbach vor der Höhe for lunch with a brie and tomato roll, coffee crema, and a plunder mit pudding.

#FS2019pastryride #5. This time pastry and coffee were from different places. I stopped by the Consulate thinking of a long ride, but was having rear brake pad issues that I couldn’t adjust on the fly, so I decided to stop by my local Fahrradwerkstatt for an appointment to get them looked at (how I miss Bikenetic where they would generally put the bike on the stand for something like this instead of giving me an appointment for eight days later ) Anyway, I headed to the Café Ruppel on Eckenheimer Landstraße across from the entrance to the Hauptfriedhof (main cemetery). I been meaning to go there for the past two years. It turns out it is two businesses, the sit down Café and the carryout Konditorei which doesn’t have a coffee machine. I got a Kirschplunderstückchen (like a cherry Danish). That I brought home to eat (does that count?).

#FS2019pastryride #7. I was going to try and figure out the elevation of the Taunus snowline, but once again I got turned around in Bad Homburg and decided to save it for another day. I should have plenty of opportunity since it will be at or below freezing for the extended forecast (but no snow until next weekend). But first I stopped at Kamps Backstube on Louisenstraße in Bad Homburg’s pedestrian zone (don’t ride through there Monday to Saturday). I had a mid-size Kaffee Crema and three mini=croissants (two were Schoko).

Pastry ride #2 — Local 16

The baklava was OK to my taste — rather dry and bland. The band was the main attraction. There will be another show on Friday.

I’m trying to have something different as often as I can.

#FS2019pastryride #10. It’s still below freezing in Frankfurt and today we had very light snow all day, but little accumulation. My ride partner bailed on our planned ride so I just headed out mid-afternoon to ride through the Grüneburg and Nidda Parks and ended up in the Heddernheim neighborhood where I stopped at Bäckerei Bonanno for my coffee and unspecified pastry.
