 A "business" trip to Western Germany
#1



I literally love this bike so much that I suffered by the thought to leave it alone during a business trip. Smile The only solution was to make the trip by bike instead of flying or going by car or train. So I packed my few things and went from North Germany to West Germany with my CB for a business meeting. “Enforcedly” I avoided freeways and used the much more beautiful country roads. And I managed to extend the trip a bit to have a nice ride in North Rhine-Westphalia and to the Netherlands as well as to visit one of the bigger traditional biker meetings. In sum I rode 1500 km

A local farmhouse


A short break during the trip


A picture of local industry, still active,


and ancient industrial infrastructure (shot while moving slowly with the bike)


streets I like


leading to small villages with beautiful churches


and friendly natives Big Grin

some pictures from the biker meeting







and going home

Nice pictures! As Americans we frequently forget people live in other countries; I thought this was going to be a story about shipping the bike overseas!

As a non-American you're certainly lighter than myself, living in the Land of the Free Refills as I do, which explains how you tolerated the seat that long!

Great report ItsMe. I visited Germany for the first time last year and spent some of the time in the west. I enjoyed it a lot.
