October 11, exactly 1 month before my 18th birthday.
The sky is blue, and the temperature is about 20° C and higher. What a perfect day for a bicycle trip!

2 minutes to pump up the rear tyre of my bicycle (I think it has a hole, but, indeed it's 10 years old and maybe even more!), put my blue helmet and I'm gone, 1.5 L water bottle, some chocolate, usb gps unit and laptop in the bag.

"Sense", I'm coming. After cycling up the hill in Praroman, I widely open my eyes for the very long descent coming (Route de Thorin). Wow. Even my eyes catched teardrops.
Then, reality coming back. Junction without any road signs. So... let's thing, where do I want to go? Sense ? Javoll! "Talfahrt" geht weiter... => "Plunge" continues...

Oh, "regional cycle routes signs" on the way!
It seems that I took the good decision!
Schöne Strasse in den Wälder! Kein Auto, mmmh :-)

Stersmuehle, industrial zone. And little place to have a bath in the Sarine/Ärgera.

Then, after this long descent, it's time to climb, climb, climb, ...
And get afraid of crazy young riders (on motorcycle) coming in the opposite way!!!

Tentlingen. Schöne strasse mit "double cyclelanes" but only one lane for cars, so, the cars meet in a very special way when there's someone cycling there...
Something a little afraid for me, if you see what I mean...

Then, Giffers village. Oh! Children exiting a restaurant. Some child had his birthday lunch there. Schönxi!
Nowadays, get lost, and oh! I must go there : "Le Pafuet" or something like this. Long descent "Aergerastrasse" and medium climb after it.
Le Pafuet, Centre Sportif du Mouret. Go to "Route d'Oberried". Oh. What a awful climb. Then turn right to Montévraz.
Industrial zone, no road left! ?!?!? So take the mucky path strait ahead. Ouch!
Ok, and then, I found the "Route cantonale" again to Le Mouret, and took my way back to home.

Wonderful trip. Wonderful day. Wonderful "Bénichon"!

See you soon on the roads of Fribourg!
