Back home now. I'll get some photos up soon.
The day after the Neuschwanstein Castle visit, I went to a nice quirky little car museum in a village called Wolfegg. It is most like the one at Bourton on the water. General car theme but tons of other old stuff too. Some bikes but well worth a visit for anyone who likes motors. Owner very friendly and speaks good English.

Not a long trip that one, as it was a bit of a damp day.
The following day (Sunday) was an early start, out of Ravensburg via Ulm and up to Stuttgart for a look round the Mercedes museum before heading for an overnight stop at Luxembourg. The beginning of the journey home!
Some lovely quiet sweeping A roads up to Ulm, then autobahn to stuttgart. If you have to do long distance in Germany try and go on a Sunday when the lorries aren't allowed on the autobahn it makes quite a difference.
Arrived in Stuttgart and found the exit for the Mercedes museum closed, so ended up in a huge car park and was directed to walk about a mile to the museum. It was Marathon day in Stuttgart and it was a hot day and complete mayhem with parking and runners limbering up etc. I did get some funny looks walking through this scene in full bike gear!

Merc museum was more like an art gallery, lots of old merc stuff thoughtfully laid out, but very little personality. Still at £10 to get in who can complain? https://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b615/robertlynn77/Mobile%20Uploads/20190526_104038_zps9x6egs7b.jpg
Merc motorbike - note stabilisers!

Back on the bike and into traffic, took me nearly an hour to get out of stuttgart. It was hot and it took all my self control not to filter.
On the autobahn again eventually, all went well then a 'stau' (traffic jam) happened. Three lanes at standstill. I waited for the there for another half hour, then a bike filtered past. The Germans leave a gap between lanes 2 and3 for emergency vehicles. I followed the filtering biker, and another one soon appeared behind me. We soon caught up with an ADAC breakdown lorry ' filtering' (horn blaring and no doubt lights fkashing!) down this gap, all the way to the front of the queue, where the police were picking up some crashed vehicles. We bikers slotted back into the traffic and were soon on our way.
Quite a long one then to Luxembourg, though there was some nice country on single carriageway, in a gap in the A8 autobahn.
Stayed with a lovely family (airbnb)in lux, then off early the next morning.
This is what suburban Luxembourg looks like in case you ever wondered:https://i1294.photobucket.com/albums/b615/robertlynn77/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG-20190526-WA0011_zpsacmckphn.jpeg
In many ways its a lot like the UK ____________________ NSR 125 (with L-Plates) > 1994 NTV 650 > 2015 CB650F > 16 VFR800F |
