Yes, dear Olga, of course! ...but I will practice to ride up stairs. ;-)) At the mausoleum there were some cyclists who could do it! I've just uploaded a photo. Please look:
Yes, yes, now reminds me! Thank you, dear Olga! As a young man I also could do this. But you know, now I am 58... ...motion without wheels is utterly exhausting ...and climbing up the stairs by feet becomes nearly impossible ;o( Luckily in Germany there are often special barrier free ways for old people! ;o)))
Thanks, you are very nice to me! :-D ...but you give me again a good idea for my next cycling trip! As the next I will ride to the renaissance castle Hasperde! Castle Hasperde is used now as a residential home for the elderly. What do you think: should I look there already for an apartment? :o))
