Day 4 Monschau - Eindhoven. 200 kilometres. Weather: ..... rain. It is what is is.... we went home. Took a shower and relaxed.

 

Brilliant pictures. I love Germany.
Holland too.

 

@PhannieNL: Thanks for sharing your great photos and your experience with us.

 

Monschau is lovely. We were there last year.

 

Nice trip!!! Weather was not that bad!

would love to do something like that myself someday

 

Love the travelog and the photos! How do you get on with rain on your face shield? Do you use a water repellent on it? I have a Triumph Trophy SE with a large windscreen. Since I am a fair weather rider, I haven't had to deal with rain. Should I get caught, I could use a little advice. Thanks!

What lovely photos! Looks like a great trip. I particularly like the pictures from Day 2 of looking down across the river. Thanks for sharing!!

 

Just go and do it mate. The Eiffel's not far away!
