ORANJE-BIKE TOUR 2014 "The Ride through History"
Dear History-Riders,
my name is Fred Struben and I live in the Jammertal, / 8 kms away from Nassau / Lahn.
My bike is an ol´ Lady Honda CX 500 an we both like to stray around the Rhine-Lahn-Wispertal River Valleys in beautiful Naturpark Nassau and in the Westerwald and Taunus Mountain range.
If I am not on my bike, I run a historical event agency (www.eventus-historia.de). So why not combine my hobby of reenact history and the fun of "riding through" it?! As I don´t need to earn money with having fun, there is no particular website about yet.
So here is a first and rough survey:
FRIDAY afternoon. We pick up our dutch riders at FESTUNG EHRENBREITSTEIN / Koblenz/ Rhine-River Valley.. (-or later directly at ou BIKER´S MOTEL near NASSAU-Town.
Ride to LAHNSTEIN and BAD EMS, (it´s not too bad there!), along the LAHN RIVER up to BURG NASSAU. Having our first toast on the Nassau-Oranje Dynasty.
Check in at our Biker´s Motel nearby and get acquainted to each other. Warm-up while INTRODUCTION on the "ORANJE-BIKE TOUR 2014".
SATURDAY Starting after a good biker´s breakfast (ontbijt) to the Castle of LAURENBURG, the very first Burg of the Nassau-Dynasty. Passing pittoresque BALDUINSTEIN and SCHAUMBURG to SCHLOSS ORANIENSTEIN in DIEZ/ Lahn. Foto-shooting with our CX 500 cavallry. Passing world-wide known LIMBURG/Lahn to BURG RUNKEL, having an icecream at the famous italian Icecream-parlour and biker-meeting point from the Frankfurt bike-scene) Driving to SCHLOSS WEILBURG (-part of the Nassauer Erbteilung) and having a kopje koffie at Hessen´s Neuschwanstein SCHLOSS BRAUNFELS. Then we are heading to Burg GREIFENSTEIN and DILLENBURG. -thats were Wilhelmina used to visit once a year, (-but not on a bike, I suppose ...) After a biker´s meal, we cruise along the narrow routes of the beautiful WESTERWALD to WESTERBURG, MONTABAUR and GELBACHTAL back to our Motel for chilling-out and making friendships.
SUNDAY The tour leads to JAMMERTAL, RUPBACHTAL, AARTAL, WISPERTAL, RHEINGAU, KLOSTER EBERBACH (-world famous Riesling wineothek!), GEISENHEIM, RÜDESHEIM,(-real bikers know it) GERMANIA-MONUMENT, ASSMANSHAUSEN, LORCH, Brunch at famous BENNO´s BIKER´s PARADIESE, directly at the Rhineshores (-real bikers know it!), KAUB, LORELEY(-nice girl,-but no bike!), St. GOARSHAUSEN with Café-Stop at Arno´s "Bikers Welcome" Restaurant, then to BURG STERRENBERG und LIEBENSTEIN ("Feindliche Brüder") famous MARKSBURG and back through the HINTERLANDSWALD to our Bike-o-Motel. Check out and bye-bye-farewell-tears-to-next-meeting ...
All these tours can be extendet or combined on request. (For example by booking a complete group).
As far as there is a minimum of 10 riders, we work out a convienient date.
After inscription, everybody can book directly the Bike-Motel. No further contracts! One biker,- one word! Everybody is responsible for himself!
Campgrounds nearby.
We ride in groups of 10 drivers maximum.
I ask for 20,-€ per day/person for the (hopefully good) guidance and organisation.
Don´t hesitate to contact me for further informations, (-or visit me in the Jammertal-)
With chivalrous regards
Yours
