So glad you got help on the trains when you needed it! Have a great adventure!

2 years agoAnd you’re off!! To a good start too. Same weather here — thought for sure I was deep in Fall and then came 80 degrees again. Wishing you the best weather, the best time and lots of fun. Enjoy.

2 years agoHi Jill, yes too bad the train systems in most countries, Germany no exception, isn't keeping up with the demand for bicycle transport. Not profitable enough I guess. I'll keep the details coming.
2 years agoHi women, I am so glad I saw your journal today about heading to the Black Forest. That whole business about what the train boarding will be like with a bike is nerve wracking; it’s just too bad it can’t be standardized so we know what we are getting into. Suzanne, since my husband and I are storing our bikes in Munich I was VERY interested in the departure from Munich, since I am guessing that next year we will want to train to France- or somewhere nearby — start our next trip. Keep,the details coming….they are very helpful.
2 years agoI’m glad you made it. Hopefully, Susan will be there to meet you!
2 years agoNothing like good help for the beginning of your trip! So much for all that worrying, but you had the plan down so well, Janos had no problem helping you. Safe travels.

I read your blog and am so glad that your health is back! Congratulatons on doing a good job at being consistent and disciplined with your therapy. It paid off.
I'm so happy for you to have a tour with friends coming up that's also in a 'new-to-you' touring location. That weather forecast looks pretty perfect! And I'm sure someone will help you with those steps - I've always had someone offer to help when travelling with bike in a box and big backpack... and I don't think I look particularly helpless. I do agree those bike hooks are pretty impossible though. Have fun!
2 years agoYour dry run to the train you will be taking is exactly something I would be doing. I don’t like not knowing what to expect and being negatively surprised. I think you will be just fine now that you know. Plus I remain sure that someone will assist you. ;’-).
2 years agoI'm afraid the Deutsche Bahn has outgrown its image.
2 years agoI didn’t know German trains were ever behind schedule.
