see you guys in the netherlands

i`m not sure if it fits your program, but if anyone wants to travel a bit more south and is up for a nice ride in the german eifel , i could organise a nice tour. the german eifel has some awesome riding area`s and it should be possible to visit the nurburg ring

feel free to contact me if i can help

Thanks for your very kind offer , Jane and I plan to be in the Netherlands all week and we won't have time to travel down to that area of Germany (we've been before, several times) but I'm sure others might be interested.
