Hi everyone,
Whele and I have decided that while we are living in Southern Germany (in the Schwabian Alps) we would like to go on one weekend trip a month through the summer. We are saving Garmisch-Partenkirchen until the snow has receded and the pass is open, about June, and we have some more lovely roads to try, Schwarzwaldhochstrasse included. We'd love to share them.
The loose plan is this:
We plan a route for Saturday and Sunday, staying at a guest house overnight (or 2 depending on how much time people have). Anyone who wants to come and stay over at our house before and/after for a night to gather themselves, especially if they ride over is welcome. It's a nice ride to here in itself. We can sleep 3-5 in proper beds (2 double one single, depends on how well you know each other, with space on floors if necessary).
The road quality here is wonderful, despite the snow only disappearing now, the temperatures have risen to 16 degrees in the daytime. The driving standards are high and the roads pretty empty. It feels deserted after the M25!
So if you fancy a long weekend, and a ride on some beautiful roads in company, let us know. We plan one for April, May, June, July August and September. Any preferences which road?
Whele and his Garmin are ready!
Catherine.
