Hello my friends out there,

From the Black forest we went to the West, crossed the Rhine river and spend 2 nights in the beautiful village of Ribeauville.

The nice thing on our restdays is, you do what you want:

Ride or Rest - it is up to you...

Yesterday we left France and rode again through the Black forest/Germany direct into Switzerland, where we spend a night close to the "Rheinfall" at Schaffhausen:

After a night in our hotel in Schaffhausen we continued along the lake of Constance to the so called "Säntis", a beautiful mountain in Switzerland.

After a wonderful week with a fantastic group we made it back to our base hotel in Erding. This trip showed us really some of  the "BEST OF EUROPE"

Thanks for a wonderful time!!!

Anne-Marie and I were on the 1st tour in June 18 to 26th. Had a great time too! We are looking at the catalog to decide where to go next year! Looks like another great tour!

The tour wraps up tonight, and it has been beyond awesome! In spite of the rainy weather most of the week, the sights have been fantastic, the roads a pure joy to ride, and the comraderie has been great. Not to mention the wonderful tour guides that Edelweiss has provided us! This has been the trip of a lifetime. Highly recommend it to all!

To be fair, FNM has played a few new songs (Caffeine, RV, The World is Yours, etc) back in the day beorfe they had put out the album they ended up on or in the case of The World is Yours, it never ended up on an album until after they'd split these are all possibilities for The Mystery Song and anything else that shows up on this next wave of shows also, I don't think the boys are beholden to a label at this point Oh, and in three days, even though it sucks that I won't be there, it's still awesome to know that FAITH NO MORE WILL BE PLAYING LIVE SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD!!!

Hi guys,
The tour looks just marvelous, I can't believe there is such beautiful spots in Europe that I haven't been to yet! I wish I could be there as well!
I wish you safe riding and may you all have a fantastic trip with Conny and Jens!
Greetings from Vienna,
