Hello Bikers out there,
BMW Canada Dealers are on the road!
We are travelling with a group of 36 people on 26 motorcycles (incl. 3 tour guides) through Germany, Luxembourg and Belgium - what an experience... The day before yesterday we started in Frankfurt with beautiful sunshine - today we crossed Luxembourg and right now we are in Dinant, Belgium.
Have a look:
Everybody copying the map - nobody wants to get lost... hihihi!
Arriving to Rüdesheim at the Rhine River
Good Morning Coffee,right at the corner of the world famous Drosselgasse...
And then into the impressive Rhine Valley - taking a ferry across it - great!
Great Lunch Spot at Cochem, direct at the Moselle River -good Schitzels!
And finally we made it to Trier, the oldest town of Germany.
After a great day - finally a cold beer in front of the "Port Nigra" - a 2000 year old Roman Gate!
Prost guys!
After a night in Trier we continued through Luxembourg into Belgium, endless little roads with uncountable turns... what else do we need?
Leaving Trier in the morning - on brandnew BMWs!
Somewhere in Luxembourg - Vianden Castle in the back, great to visit...
Belgium - as you can see!(they invented the Fries)
Typical Road Sign in Belgium...
Dinant - our place for the night, somewhere in Frites Country...
Welcome to Spa Francorchamps - visiting the Race track museum!
After a great visit of the museum we continued on very small roads and finally we made it back to Germany - the little romantic village of Monschau was our lunch stop - great place:
Preparing for the last stretch - let´s go to Cologne - the Intermot is waiting for us...
We arrived around five in the afternoon - a little later we were checking out the "Früh´s" something like Colognes Hofbräuhaus... what a party!
Intermot 2012 - today we are coming!
Let´s go inside - we are getting a tour through the BMW booth - the new GS is waiting for us...
and the concept of the brandnew BMW E-Scooter - when can we ride it???
Good Bye Cologne - tomorrow we are back on the road - See you!
Stillthe Intermot 2012 Motorcycle Show in our mind, we continued South, first to visit the Nürburgring, then across the Mosel river back to the Rhine river...
Nürburgring Museum - really nice!
and here the winners:
And then we made it back along the rivers to Frankfurt... Here our full group, all the BMW guys from Canada:
Thank you guys - you were a great group!
Your tour guides
Michael, Ramon and Jens
