Hey Jscot

The MainRadweg (Main River Bike Path) is a great route. Not that I'm biased or anything because I live on it.

The policy on bikes on trains depends on what part of Germany you are in. Bavaria for example charges for bikes on trains, but most states (e.g. Hessen, Baden Wurtemburg, NRW et al.)

The ADFC website doesn't have much in English, but if you ask me specific questions, I can translate the answers for you. You could also try www.ecf.com


What are your goals for your upcoming trip?

yours,

Lance

Any feedback on the Main River route versus other central Germany routes?
Is it worth it to go even further South to catch the Euro "Rivers" route at Ulm?
How about the Euro "capitals" route East/West, any feedback on that one?
What is the German train policy on bikes for non-ICE trains? Is there a charge (I can't find that)?
Any information most welcome.
