As soon as we got our bikes from the Fat Tire Bike Company it began to rain. After some dithering and then putting on both rain trousers and those clear plastic tops that all Americans seem to carry, off Sarah and I sped in a light drizzle, Tom leading the way. Our first destination was to go further into the Eastern Zone to Friedrichshain where a mile of the Wall still remains, known as the East Gallery. After that we cycled up Karl Marx Allee. Sarah is a speeder while I hang back a little and look around, even sometimes taking photographs So she set the pace with Tom asking him questions and I kept up but liked cycling at not quite such a ferocious pace. We got back to Alexanderplatz just as the light was failing, much exhilarated.
