Martin, Basti, Yogi and Berger on its own axis to the Scramblerfever to Poland.
START: 9:00 am Witzhave...
The planned start is postponed by an hour because Yogi and Berger can hardly make any progress in the extreme rush-hour traffic and it takes them ages to finally get through Hamburg.
Very small roads and dirt tracks to Büchen, then almost exclusively off-road to the campsite at Königsberger See - a day to enjoy. The paths are damn well watered and at the beginning we try to avoid the huge puddles of water.
That takes time and at the end of the day we have to hurry to get to the campsite in time - there's nothing to eat there after 6pm.
On the second day, we cycle mainly on small roads around Berlin and in the afternoon we relax at a campsite near Frankfurt/Oder.
On the third day, we only have 80 km to the Scrambler Fever. We cross the border in Frankfurt/Oder and shortly afterwards dive into the Polish off-road routes.
It's fantastic to see the magnificent nature on this stretch and we can get into the groove for long sandy stages here. The ferry crossing is even free of charge here.
We arrive on Thursday afternoon - after a big hello and registration, we head straight to the end of the campsite for the evening trial special stage.
Tim on his little Tiger Cup wins this one in impressive fashion - congratulations!
Friday's program includes the legendary orientation drive with lots of games, tasks and special tests.
The roadbooks have to be put on the bikes and then it's off to the start.
Anticipation and excitement are in the air and the queue in front of the start is growing fast.
A great day in the most beautiful natural surroundings - varied routes and games where skill, strength and endurance are required.
The exit on Saturday.
The routes of the orienteering tour already put a big grin on everyone's face, but that was to be topped by the ride out.
After two days of playing in the dirt, the relaxed part follows - chilling, barbecuing, campfire, award ceremony and party with so many great people.
Many thanks to Red Hot Chili Customs and all the tireless helpers for a fantastic weekend!
Thanks for the great pictures and movies to:
Martin Hass, Red Hot Chili Customs and their photographers, Rebelzer on the Road, Stefani Schroeder and probably a few more photo donors.
This year, ScramblerFever created some very nice films and for all those who have not yet found these video gems on YouTube, we have linked them here.
