    Ich bin die Tour zwei mal im Abstand einer Woche gefahren, weil ich sie so schön fand - mit meinem Sohn und dann mit meiner Frau. Die Steigungen wie die gesamte Tour sind für halb - Trainierte gut zu machen. Sportler müssen die Runde eventuell zwei mal nacheinander fahren. Gestartet sind wir in Ebelsbach und die erste Hälfte auf dem Rennweg über die Höhen der Haßberge ist herrlich, die einsamen Wege und Straßen, der Ausblick. Ich hätte der Tour alle 5 Sterne gegeben, wäre nicht der Rückweg durch's Maintal gewesen. Die Öffnungszeiten des Gutshofes in Pettstadt sind sehr begrenzt - Dienstags hat man Pech. Königsberg fanden wir im Dornröschenschlaf - sehr schön anzuschauen, aber schlafend - ... außer ... in der Herrenschenke unterhalb der Kirche wurden wir zwei mal hervorragend bewirtet.

    Landschaftlich sehr schöne Runde. Leider etwas viel auf befahrenen Landstraßen, obwohl unbefahrene Feldwege daneben laufen.

    Sehr steiler Anstieg zur Burgruine. Bei Nässe daher sehr rutschig. Der Weg lohnt sich, die Ruine ist wirklich schön, es gibt auch eine Picknick-Bank oben.

    Eine sehr schöne Tour, aber entgegen den Angaben des Autors alles andere als leicht!! Es gibt zwei sehr langgezogene und heftige Steigungen, die auch geübte Radfahrer herausfordern! Leider ist die Streckenführung nicht sehr präzise aufgezeichnet, abschnittweise nur Luftlinie, so dass man öfter über den Weg rätseln musste, was etwas lästig war. - Man findet sich aber zurecht! Wir sind in Mürsbach gestartet und die Route im Uhrzeigersinn abgefahren. Auf der Strecke liegen Schloss Eyrichshof, Burgruine Rotenhan und Schloß Gereuth. Die Strecke ist landschaftlich wunderschön und abwechslungsreich.
