Only half a successful pitstop in warm and sunny Munich on my train ride from Sweden to Italy. I forgot that sundays are a pain in Germany since most shops are closed. Finally, I got a superb pretzel with butter and chives plus coffee on Marienplatz. When trying to do a photo, I spilled all the coffee over my Brooks saddle in front of plenty of people. Some quickly turned their heads and pretended not to have seen anything. Travelling always has its surprises. #BikeTooter #Brompton #BikePacking
@kcposch yeah, Germany is not very helpful or sympathetic in such moments. I sometimes have the feeling it is the old shame about things that should not happen in public. You won‘t get a „Oh shit that‘s a pitty, may I hand you a handkerchief?“ It is even the shame of something which did not happen to me that has this awkward feeling the generation before our parents tried to avoid on all costs. Probably something special about a war generation. Eastern part of Germany feel better
@kcposch You are not staying in Munich by any chance?
@taseroth Nein, heute nicht.
@kcposch I am sure the coffee dye will look just perfect on the saddle leather!
