I think I rode for 90 km or so when my GPS tracker told me that the UFO memorial was close by. I stepped into the forest and tried to spot it.

Also, it was the first time I spotted any other cyclist on the Berlin to Copenhagen route. Especially when I got to Waren, a gorgeous city by the Müritz Lake, I could spot people bike-packing, and it felt nice to be part of a group.
