Finally! My anticipation was huge, because finally yesterday we went back to the mountains, namely to Leogang in Austria. I’ve been wanting an e-bike for a long time and wanted to try out the wheels from Rotwild. No sooner said than done, I sat on the bike yesterday right after breakfast and off I went 800 meters in altitude in the direction of Lindlalm. There are many people who claim that e-bikes are only for wimps. I’m of the opposite opinion, because thanks to the e-battery, riders of different levels can now ride together.
Vegan granola bar
On such a trip you need of course Snacks . For the car ride and especially the bike tour to avoid the well-known hunger hole. Sure, it’s super easy to buy ready-made granola bars at the supermarket. However, this can also be homemade, simple, fast and uncomplicated. Best of all, you know what’s in it, and hopefully only the best ingredients.
Starting with kernels. Oatmeal , superfoods, nuts, chia seeds and Flaxseed , to coconut oil, almond butter and maple syrup.
The bike tour was in any case a complete success, because everything just fit. The weather with mild 20 degrees, super E-MTBikes, a rustic hut and nice people. Unfortunately, it was only a day trip (howl!) and I can’t wait when I get to get back in the saddle. Ok, I can’t complain because our annual vacation is coming up and we are going to BALI. Of course, I’ll be posting diligently from there as well, because I have a very special challenge coming up: 21 Days Vegan Challenge! Stay tuned.
Get started with these energy-packed granola bars. I wish you a lot of fun in recooking and of course a review at the bottom of this page. If you post a picture, use the hashtag #veganevibes.
