Gute Strecke, die mich durch ein paar Ecken geführt hat, in denen ich als Kind viel war. :)

war doch gar nicht schlecht!
in und um Borna noch etwas Optimierungsbedarf. Wenn man am WE die Route fährt kann man überall entspannt fahren.
Am Cospudener See sind bei schönem Wetter wie immer die Rücksichtslosen unterwegs, also Obacht!
TIPP: lecker Eis im Eiscafé di Lago in Großstolpen
