The former East German border, Pommersfelden will be our base for the first week, and a week in Treis-Karden, in the Mosel Valley, Germany's great wine producing area. Also a trip to the infamous Nürnburgring. Me and Kathy also rode to Prague and Berlin for a day.
Scotland 2001-2002-2003 We love Scotland, it is great for bikers and biking and there always loads of bikes around. The traffic can be busy on the main routes, but most folk make room for you to pass. June 2001 we stayed mainly in the north of Scotland, and spent the summer solstice on the Orkney Isles. 2002 we did a large loop of the Highlands, Forres, Tain, Talmine, Ullapool, and dropped down to Loch Ness. 2003 Based in Kinlochewe, we did Applecross ,numerous others and met up with some good travelling friends Paul and Margaret. Talmine, The Highlands 2002 Loch Maree 2003 The Orkney Isles 2001 France 2000-2002 The last Bol'd'Or (World bike endurance race) we did was in 1992. 2000 was a week in Frejus, and 2002 was two weeks in a large bastide ( a large strong house) in Flayosc, both in Provence, South of France, on the Mediterranean Sea Coast.
