Winter Vibes Around Home

It’s starting to feel like winter, and today’s ride was a more local adventure—but a fantastic one nonetheless. Just a short distance from the urban jungle, the gravel paths and forests transport you to a completely different world. It’s amazing how close nature is, offering a perfect escape and a refreshing change of scenery.

 Starting from the old town, we stumbled upon a hidden gem—a graffiti-covered wall that felt like an urban easter egg—before heading into the forest towards the Noua neighborhood. From Noua, we followed the classic gravel road to Timișul de Sus, enjoying the mix of smooth trails and rugged terrain. The grand finale was a final ascent to Poiana Angelescu in Săcele, a rewarding climb that capped off the adventure before heading back home, reflecting on an incredible day on the bike.
