Hello! I am Tim Wessel
„Plan B“ is the title of my
bike tour through Germany
and there is some more
meaning behind this
wording.
Plan B
The tour will get me from
Bad Bellingen-Bamlach
through Bühl, Bruchsal,
Bulau (Rödermark), Bad
Soden-Salmünster,
Berka/Werra, Büßleben
(Erfurt), Bitterfeld,
Beelitz, Berlin, Brieselang,
Bad Wilsnack, Bleckede,
Bergedorf (Hamburg),
Bovenau until the last stop
Böxlund. Böxlund is a small
village at the Danish border.
The rough tour details can be
found on komoot
(https://www.komoot.com/tour/785398988).
The tour is ca. 1‘500 km and
I will ride that within 16 days
(one day break included).
Tent, sleeping bag, mat,
laptop, Insulin pump, CGM
(Continuous Glucose
Monitoring) – system as well
as diabetes care (type 1) will
be on tour again and (like last
year) my horse will be my
mountain bike (without E).
I already received
confirmation that for specific
parts of the tour there will be
some company. This will be
documented here as well, so
stay tuned.
Start will be 27th July 2022
in Bamlach, goal will be on
11th August 2022 Böxlund.
In the next two weeks I will
have the pleasure to drive
with my bike through
Germany. I want to share
some of the impressions with
you (see logbook below) and
want to encourage you to
share with people who really
need it, in the same way as
they could not join me for the
ride – given their disability.
I am donating for every
driven kilometer a certain
amount of money to „Verein
Samuel Koch und Freunde
e.V.“
Join me on that journey,
enjoy the impressions and
donate a little bit as well.
Donation
The other meaning behind
„Plan B“ is, that this tour will
be associated to a donation
activity for „Samuel Koch &
friends“, which is an
association, caring about
disabled persons and their
relatives.

(picture from Christoph Oetzmann)
Samuel Koch had an accident
in 2010 at Europe’s biggest
TV-show „Wetten, dass…?“,
where he broke his neck four
times. Since then he is
running plan B in a similar
way as the ca. 80 disabled
persons and their relatives,
who are currently living in
our refugee camp in the
village Bamlach, where I am
living.
There will be some postings
of the personal stories from
some of the refugees on this
site over time and during the
tour in order to show who
are the ones receiving the
donations at the very end.

picture galery / logbook
Some pictures and impressions will be posted on
this site during the tour (like last year) in order
to let you participate a little bit and share with
you these impressions, in case you cannot / do
not want to join.
Maybe that can also initiate for you to consider a
new way of getting from A to B.
