The "Schienbeinmus" team
A small subgroup of the Luxembourg chapter is the former football team "Schienbeinmus", which took part in poly-football championships in the 1970s. After graduation, the team continued to play in the line-up of the Poly era.
The name "Schienbeinmus" was chosen to scare the opponents in advance, according to the motto: "There's no faffing about here, here comes an aggressive team with a killer instinct".
The representatives of the opposing team (not Poly graduates) were outnumbered on this hike, suggesting that the "ex-Poly footballers" were not as dangerous as their team name suggested. In any case, there were no serious incidents during the hike.
The hike
In glorious temperatures for a March day (16 degrees), the hikers covered the 7.5 kilometers by 12:15. The start (10:15) and arrival point was the parking lot / forest playground 'Bei der Bonnert'. The highest point was 342 meters, the lowest 291 meters. An easy hike with several breaks to relive old times.
El Payrador restaurant
At the South American restaurant "El Payador", 2, route. de Finsterthal, 7769 Bissen, refreshments awaited the hikers.
