Davros is come of age. Yes, Pete celebrates his 'blimey, how the hell did I make it this far' 50th birthday today and in typical Red Lion Bikers fashion we forgot.
Well, actually, no of course we didn't forget (not like Sandra did) and Pete is seen here proudly displaying the gift we cobbled all of our loose change together at the last minute to purchase.
The ride today from Trier to Koblenz, which sits where the rivers Mosel and Rhine meet, was blessed with blue skies which made the trip along the gently winding riverside roads all the more enjoyable. Things got even better when the back lanes route to Cochem where we had lunch gave us yet more of the tight hill roads we've gorged ourselves on this holiday. The scenery in the Mosel valley is very easy on the eye and hilltop castles overlooking picture postcard villages by the banks of the river were in evidence all the way. Today is a public holiday of some sort in Germany and there were hundreds of bikes out, most of which were mighty BMWs. The only vehicles they were outnumbered by were the infernal camper vans which plagued the roads doing their paltry 25mph.
As a small tribute to our elder statesman, there follows a few of Pete's 'highlights' from RLB trips of the past, and present. Happy Birthday Pete :)
