A journey from Basel in Switzerland, through Alsace in France, through the Palatinate, to Wörth, Speyer and Hockenheim / Mannheim. Accompanying my wife and me on this tour, where we braved the summer heat, heavy rain and wind with our pedal power, good humor and wonderfully rolling Brompton folding bikes. After each day of travel you can follow the route on the Relive sequence. Be lenient, I won't pronounce everything correctly and... oh dear, the town of Gambsheim is mentioned more than enough in the video.
