All is well on the western front . Ya only get that if you watched Hogan’s Heroes as a kid.
The Rhine splits the border between France and Germany here as I go back and forth on across the river.

The bike trail has everything today. Gravel, mud, rocks, and some beautiful smooth areas. There was rain and wind as well. All in a day’s ride.

My first view of the foothills of the Black Forest of Germany of in the distance. But I got lots of time before I have to think about the climb.

This house was built in 1395. Long before American was discovered by the Europeans. Now that’s a fixer upper 😂.
Thanks again for sharing the ride with me. I’m headed toward Basel, from there i take a left and follow the Rhine almost to Lake Constance. Then I head north and east in the Black Forest and follow Danube to Passau and the head south ish to Salzburg. Then over over over to Austria and the Italy to a little town of Groddo about 100km east of Venice where I’ll dip my tire in the Adriatic. It’s all a dream at this point 😃. Love you guys. Mike
