Main

The Main river flows through northern Bavaria into Hessen, where it meets the Rhine just past Frankfurt.

I rode into Frankfurt this day, and had beers with some colleagues

We saw a small shipyard along the Main

The sky was beautiful the whole trip
Clouds over some wheat fields

The shade trees along this path were very welcome
Bike path shaded by trees on both sides

The final day, I rode along the Rhine to Mannheim, and then the Neckar to Heidelberg

The landscape was flat
A bike path next to fields

The views were amazing
Wheat fields on a sunny day

Mannheim is not very beautiful
