Near Regen River, Germany 18 April 1999
This photograph illustrates a very common and annoying thing about southeast Germany. In many small towns there were seperated bike paths. That's all well and good, but as in the case here (I think this is Nittenau), it was on the wrong side of the road for me and they only went about 1 or 2 km and then ended. this meant that I had to make a couple of dangerous road crossings everytime I wanted to avail myself of the bike path. Often this was just too much of a pain - consider riding through 20 such towns. I just preferred to stay on the real road and cruise on through. But this would often get the German drivers into a tizzy - in fact, it reminded me of Americans.
