Very entertaining :) I've just returned home from the longest trip this season. I so happened - by pure coincidence - that I had to attend a work-related meeting in Salzburg, Austria last week, and in the weekend that followed this meeting was the yearly GPZ-Treffen in the Austrian Alps, just 80 km south of Salzburg. Because I had the time to do it, I decided to travel all the way to Salzburg on ordinary roads, without riding one single kilometre on the Autobahn. I split the 1100 km (684 miles) into three with overnight stays at small hotels. Germany is such a nice country with good people, good food, good beer and gorgeous roads many places, and is a shame always just to race through on the Autobahn. I had the nicest 3-day ride in wonderful late summer weather with sunshine from sunrise to sunset. After Salzburg I picked a route that took me to my final destination via Berchtesgaden and the Rossfeld Panoramastrasse - a very famous bike route in the most southern part of Germany. For several years now the GPZ has actually been a minority at the GPZ-Treffen's, but this time mine was the only GPZ out of 15 bikes. We had the nicest ride to the Grossglockner, also in sunshine, but I had to quit the ride the next day due to a severe cold. Cold or no cold, I had to get home and get to work, so the trip home was a one-day trip, 1198 km (745 miles) on the Autobahn, basically non-stop other than to eat and refuel. The Autobahn can be notorious for its Stau's (queues) that can pop up of nowhere and last for hours or many, many miles, and this time was no exception. Nevertheless, almost 1200 km in 15 hours is not bad at all. Was my butt sore? Yes. Was I cold? Yes. Would I do it again? Yes, after all it wasn't that bad, but I'd never do an iron butt just for fun ;) Btw, my GPZ now has 183.000 km (113.735 miles) on the odo and still going strong :) Ped '96 "Black Stealth" GPZ Denmark * * Den 06-10-2016 kl. 23:55 skrev masonjs at nrtco.net: > > >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> I got old yellow out yesterday.
