LOL! We gonna' do just fine![]()
Just roamed your YouTube channel... Wildalpen... my departure/approach path, by now my STs are doing that on auto-pilot
What I'm missing is Dientner Sattel-Hochkönig (B164)...?
And BTW: how does it feel to finally drive on the right side of the road?

Just 4 weeks before we were due to emigrate and having just picked up my VStrom from a major service prior to preparing it for shipping, I went for 1 last ride around the area I was born and grew up in. On a very familiar road at a relatively low speed I came to grief on a seriously dodgy road surface. A Bennetts fracture to a thumb was the least of my worries. I had broken 6 ribs, 4 at the front and 2 at the back. A couple had managed to puncture a lung. Imagine being seriously winded and not ever being able to get your breath. Unfortunately after a chest drain was inserted it became infected resulting in a stay in Intensive Care. It only delayed the move a couple of weeks though and here we are now. My only major off in over 38 years, typical.
As a foot note I was really miffed I had trashed perfectly good riding gear, some of it new. The road was a major road just 2 miles from a main Highways Repair Depot and I learned another motorcyclist had suffered a similar fate the day before....
