We woke up hoping that our sick motor was just a bad dream. Being able to ride the rest of the distance that we have planned could be a challenge without pedal assist.
The“scientific” approach of hoping that a miracle had happened overnight, now that the bike has dried out, didn’t work. So we did what we imagined any electrician would do and jiggled wires, checked connections and that didn’t work. Well, that was the extent of our expertise, so Barry then consulted the manual and that didn’t help either. No error codes....so we gave up.
We’ll phone Akkurad, the company in Koln, Monday morning to see if they can recommend a shopor figure out the problem. We are guessing that it could be the controller.
Barry is trying to figure out what is wrong the electric motor. Buster Bear is providing Barry with emotional support in this difficult and stressful time.
Wittenberg has recently been renamed Lutherstadt Wittenberg, in acknowledgement of Martin Luther and the significance of his role in the course of history in relation to the Reformation and Wittenberg. Visiting here, one can become immersed in all aspects of his life. We spent a few days here on a previous trip and visited most of the museums and sights, so this time we will take a more relaxed approach. The Schloß Kirche was completely closed at that time for complicated restoration, so that will be one place where we will definitely go.
An image of Martin Luther which represents him as a man who chose simplicity over the trappings and “indulgences” of religion.
The tower of the Schloß Kirche (Castle Church) is an iconic image of Lutherstadt Wittenberg. Martin Luther is buried in this church, gave sermons here and most famously nailed his 95 theses on a door of this church, rejecting the indulgences of faith for the simpler doctrine of the Reformation, helping those in need without material gain.
The Market Church is less grand than the Schloß Kirche. I preferred its understated simplicity. The roses in built-in vases at the end of each pew is a lovely detail.
Keith ClassenWe are hoping you will be able to have a quick fix to your electric motor issues and get the show back on the road. Despite the setback looks like you made good use of your day. Reply to this comment 5 years ago
