@ Kris; I won't post up any pics from the Vosges and Route des Cretes, as you're headed there and might not want to see spoilers. All I'll say is, you're gonna love it! Very Happy


It's fine mate, post away! Remember I don't really take many pictures so won't affect me in the slightest. Thumbs Up


Well, tbf, it's more like the Black Forest in that it's not so much about scenery as just riding the roads, although there are some nice views to be had.

In Metz tonight, had a quick turn around the city centre - lovely place, very lively cafe culture.


Hmm, now I'm intrigued... Thinking Do tell...


Calm down, calm down! Laughing All I mean is, in the evening, the city centre is almost like one big cafe/restaurant/bar; the streets are full, and I mean properly crowded, with outside seating, which was mostly packed to capacity, buzzing with conversation and laughter.
And ok then, ze French girls..... Drooling

Highest point on the Route I think:

Couple of cafes and a hotel at the top:

I had to take a detour off the route to find fuel at one point, and discovered that other roads in the area are good fun too.

Hotel owner at Metz has impeccable taste:
