Tour de "Mosel"

The Germans are great.  They love their roads and they love to drive, but they are not afraid to close down 140km of major thoroughfare to cars so that families can bike.  We did a 42km trip.  That's right, 42km (26 miles) with 8 adults and 4 kids ages 3 and under.  Eliot was a trooper riding tandem with mom -- helped me pedal (and I even took some breaks!) And Michael (Eliot's friend, age 4) rode 20km on his own 2 wheeler!!!  We had an awesome time.
