P2P Challenge ‘24: Great team spirit at the 5th edition 🚴 P2P stands for "Plant to Plant" and is based on the idea of cycling from one MTU location to another. This time, 60 MTU colleagues cycled from MTU Maintenance Hannover to MTU Maintenance Berlin-Brandenburg via the Harz Mountains and the Thuringian Forest, with stops in Braunlage, Ilmenau and Leipzig. The daily stages ranged from 145 to 185 km, with a total of 691 kilometers and 5500 meters of altitude. What a great achievement! Although the temperatures were very challenging, all participants completed the challenge safely and were welcomed back to Ludwigsfelde after four eventful days. Of course, none of this would be possible without dedicated helpers. So we'd like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you. #P2Pchallenge #WeAreEngineExperts #Cycling #BikeTour #TeamSpirit
