Magic Bike Rudesheim — Travelling Light UK and beyond

The love of motorcycles began as a child. Before I could reach the pegs I was on the bike, wind in my hair, enjoying the thrill. And now a Granny I still love the roar of the engine, the familiar smell and most of all the biker community. Something I thought would never happen has just taken place for my hubby and me. We rode together to Germany to go to the Magic Bike Rudesheim. This rally is a special one. It is on the beautiful Rhine in Germany. Despite being a Harley-Davidson event it is open to all bikers and non bikers alike for tickets. There are great stalls to shop, super places to eat and drink. The music is fabulous and of course the bike rides are out of this world. Magic Bike Rudesheim, superb bike rally is definitely worth the drive from the UK.

We chose to stay in nearby Bingen Am Rhine for the week. Somewhere quieter, giving us time to relax when we wanted and the buzz of Rüdesheim in a short trip over the Rhine. Leaving our apartment, 5 minutes ride to the ferry, 5 euros 70 for the bike and the two of us to cross the Rhine and hey presto we were in Rüdesheim. The Monday 20 or so Motorcycles, Tuesday perhaps we saw one hundred. And then suddenly Wednesday and influx of bikes. The rally starts on the Thursday and the Main Street of Rüdesheim is only open to bikes. parked on either side all the way up, wall to wall bikes. What a beautiful…
