You have a fair share of curves, climbs and superb scenery on this tour, but also the chance to learn a little bit more about three countries, new motorcycle introductions and leading world products with over 1,100 exhibitors at the INTERMOT motorcycle trade fair in Cologne.

Start your ride by winding along the Rhine river through the vineyards and hills of Rhinehessen. Wander through the Palatinate forest. Enter France and pass through the Maginot defensive line constructed after WW I. Ride southwest through colorful postcard picture perfect French villages. Start to climb into rolling meadows and forests and enter the Vosges mountain range. This area has more curves per kilometer than most Alpine areas.

The Vosges mountains is France's response to the Black Forest which is just across the Rhine river. Ride west and climb the Lorraine hills and sample the endless variety of curves. Perhaps a visit to Verdun and its World War I memorial monument at Douaumont interests you.

Alsatians pride themselves on retaining their cultural lifestyle as a result of the German and French tug-of-war through the centuries. Experience a rich tradition with your stay here.

Through endless rolling hills and forests cross the Moselle river and enter Luxembourg. This river takes its time as it wanders to the Rhine, and you too will also be tempted to try this riding variant of wandering ever so slowly or a bit faster, as you please.

Stay in the medieval town of Esch-sur-Sûre dominated by castle ruins. Ride the Luxembourger Swiss Alps or explore the lake and forests of the nature park Öwersauer. Or cruise southeast and take a stroll through the European Community city of Luxembourg and its Cassamaten fortifications.

On your 2 days in Luxembourg discover one of the best kept secrets of European motorcycling. Challenge back roads in Luxembourg and Belgium. Discover the sleepy farm villages in the Ardennes highlands. The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg promises great riding on curving, narrow, tree-lined country roads.

Cross the unnoticeable border into Belgium to view Bastogne with the MacAuliffe Square and Mardasson Memorial monument to the "Battle of the Bulge" fallen soldiers. Get lost one more time enjoying the numerous curves in this area of hills and valleys dotted with farming villages. Perhaps you wish to ride the Hohes Venn forested plateau.

See the many monuments dotting the landscape commemorating General Patton and the valiant soldiers of his Third Army. If you like, visit the Hamm National World War II American cemetery. Many well known WW II battle areas cross the roads you ride.

At our 2 day stops in Luxembourg and Germany, riders can park their bikes and/or passengers can explore century-old historical areas that surround our hotels. There are dozens of different activities every day. You are provided just enough guidance and information to make a thrilling day even if you are not riding.

Castles continually beckon you to visit them. Visit a few of them if you'd like, but remember, you'll see over 200 castles on your ride!

Ride the meandering Moselle river valley. As you wish, enter the two thousand year old city of Trier with its Porta Nigra, Roman coliseum and baths. If you like, take a detour and climb the hills for a visit to the outdoor Aircraft Museum near Hermeskeil or perhaps visit Cochem with its' historical center and Reichsburg fortress and/or travel to Burg Eltz.

Discover the volcanically formed Eifel hills. Visit the legendary Nürburgring race track and the adjoining museum and castle.

Cross the Rhine by ferry at your 2 night Rhine right bank stop. If you like, enjoy a full day at the INTERMOT Cologne motorcycle trade fair (admission tickets provided upon arrival). Or ride the Westerwald hills to the east and/or discover Cologne and its stunning medieval gothic cathedral.

The INTERMOT is the world's leading motorcycle show with over 1,100 exhibitors from over 50 countries. Everything related to the motorcycling sport is found here. Extra action performances and events round-out the motorcycling superlatives.

The Rhine valley is a designated United Nations World Heritage Site, but enjoy it even more by using 2 wheels for your travels. Perhaps visit the Loreley. Listen closely and hear her fateful song of centuries past which lured ships into the rocks (but never a rider...).

See the Deutsches Eck (German Corner) and Kaiser Wilhelm memorial at the Rhine and Moselle river confluence at Koblenz. Gaze upon the remnants of the Remagen bridge made famous by a popular WW II film.
