These look great. Thanks for the link. I wonder if my husband would like to circumnavigate the Baltic with me?
aicabsolut, if you want to cycle in Munich, get in touch and I can give you some good day trips. It's possible to hire mountain bikes and fairly robust touring-type bikes here but for a racing/road bike you would have to bring your own.

What I can't help but wonder is: If the ECF can set up a network like this through 30 different countries, why couldn't the U.S. do something similar within our one country? Does anyone know of anything similar here in the U.S. that I may not have heard of?
The more I read about the cycling culture in Europe, especially the UK, the more impressed I am."How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

No kidding.
Thanks, Bron. I'll contact you once I get an idea about details for my trip. I'll be taking classes, but I'm sure I'll have some free time. It stays light for so long over there in the summers. But if I get lost I'm in trouble because I don't speak German. Maybe I should stop off in France or Switzerland again for a while. I've never taken a bike to Europe before, but I've wanted to.
