We're preparing for another cycling tour in Europe.
Our niece Shannon is getting married in Ireland in early August so we figured, as long as we have to travel all that way, we might as well have a little vacation too. Because we enjoyed bike touring in Germany so much in 2018 we are planning a repeat visit.
We fly to Frankfurt on June 20 and will stay at our favorite hotel nearby in Mainz to reassemble the bike and get everything ready. Our plan is to head north on the Rhine from Mainz to Koblenz, then west on the Mosel to (probably) Metz, France. After that our plans are less defined. We intend to return down the Mosel a bit (maybe to Trier, Germany), then work our way northish following the borders between Luxembourg, Belgium and Germany, maybe as far as Maastricht in the Netherlands. Then we'll head east toward Dusseldorf and return south along the Rhine to Mainz.
After returning to Mainz around the end of July we'll ship the bike home, and plan to take a series of trains (plus one ferry) to Dublin and on to the wedding near Wicklow, Ireland.
Preparing for the ride yesterday, in Ashland.
