      The wind power plants are standing on a 340 m high hill.

        Oооо ... such high windmill ... as the 100-storeyed house!!!

          Oh no, dear Elena, the height of the hill is 340 m! :-)) The windmills are an older typ. The mills have only a total height of about 100m!
          This typ of windmill was produced between 1995 and 2005.
          Producer: Enercon GmbH, Aurich, Germany
          Typ: E-66 Diameter of the rotor: 66m
          Nominal power: 1.5 MW

            Oh, I mistook :)

            100 meters - too a high windmill!
            Wingspan of 66 meters - simply huge (20 floor house)!

            Hill = 340 meters...
            Perfectly, to drive downwards from it :)... but upward - it is necessary to work (very strongly) :)
            The big difference of height ...
            I at us didn't measure of difference of height still...

              I live in a hilly region. If I ride bike with my friends, we climb on every hill along our tour.
              We like the hard work of climbing and of course we like the fun of rushing downwards with heady speed :-))

                Fine! What at you was the maximum speed at descent from a hill?
                At me once was - 38 km :)... it certainly not very much - but to me was very enough :)

                  Dear Elena, I have 5 bicycles, but until now I have no MTB. So I can't tell you a maximum speed with a MTB.
                  You can’t compare the speed of a road bike with an offroad-bike!
                  The highest speed with a road bike I reached on the descent of the North-German mountain range Harz: 106 km/h. With the couch I was already several times faster than 120 km/h.
                  Because of the bad country roads in Russia most times my speed was low. My fastest speed in Russia I rode on the road M8 near Danilov. My GPS displayed a height-difference from 260 m downward to 130 m. I remember, that it was only a small down-grade on a new straight road part. The downgrade was constant along a long distance. In addition the cars pulled me. Behind a car my speed rose up to 113 km/h.
                  After finishing the ride in Vologda I shot a photo of the GPS-display with the stored datas of the ride. Just I have uploaded the photo :-)

                    Many thanks! Very high speed... I don't have words and feelings :) ...

                      To get a little feeling of the difference between a MTB off road and the couch on road, I made a small video clip. I took the clip on a country road in Lower Saxony between Polle and Bad Pyrmont.

                        Music is in harmony with the movement and speed. I realized what is missing in the video clip. Introductory and final titres need to be accompanied by voice. It somehow will connect together flashing footwear and the invisible lying person, will increase completeness of perception.
                        I think, in a following clip there will be a snow road. :-))

                          I wanted to tinker a camera fixture for the bicycle. Before that, I tested, how such a cycling video would look. I fixed the camera first temporarily with hook-and-loop tape. During the ride I had to straighten the camera several times anew. Then, however, the test video was better than I had expected. I added the music, which I heard during the ride and loaded the video up. This it was.
                          Dear Olga, your idea with additional voice is great! You should demonstrate by your bicycle and your camera :-D

                        Yes, on such smooth and empty road it is good to twist pedals. But speed shaking!
                        Very good music underneath.

                          On the empty road you can good pedalling, because it is not blocked by slow cars :o)
                          The music is a small dose of my acoustic doping, that I always carry by MP3-player with me ;-)

                        Thanks for such rushing video!
                        You cycle so quickly ... My spirit outfly :)

                        On such road I bicycle 20-25-28 km/h :) ...
                        Sometimes on the slope - hardly more than 30 km/h (I have time to see and go round holes :) ) ... :)

                          The flat tires caused by pot holes and stones are a problem of the couch :-(
                          You are right, dear Elena. By a normal bike you can better go round obstacles :-))

    :-D
    Oh! I've often been in this situation. To compete with a herd of cows is more difficult than with goats or sheep. :-)))
