Now that my major riding is over for this year, I turn to the computer for research and mapping for my 2023 season. In 2022 I rode over 15,000 miles on trips (I will add to that before the end of the year I am sure) by doing an Iron but challenge on the Ride Around Texas (3,100mi) and a trip to Prudhoe (12,000mi). Now that I have been everywhere north of Mexico in North America, I turn my focus to Europe. I have been fascinated with the Alps and the landscape surrounding them. I am considering flying to southern Germany in the July/August time frame of 2023 to ride for a week on a rented BMW GS or RT. I know this group has a lot of members in the area, what are some of the "must ride" and "must-see" Keep in mind that I only have 7 days of riding. and I usually spend 12-14 hours riding each day (sunrise until near sunset). I am not trying to set a record but I want to take advantage of my 7 days as this is most likely my only chance to ride in the area, although I may revisit the area with family on vacation to do all the touristy stuff. I enjoy mountain roads, twisties, and most of all the scenery that comes with it.
