Motocycle weekend

Over the weekend, I did something that I had wanted to do for a very long time; I went on a motorcycle weekend. By myself. A weekend in which I didn't have to be a mom, a wife or a project leader, all I had to be was me. Some people predicted I would be back Saturday night, not being able to be on my own anymore. Others congratulated me, said it was a great idea and that I should do it more often. After having spent a weekend with just my motorcycle for company, I agree with the latter :-)

Temperatures were a bit low, especially in the morning, but I had a really good time. On Saturday, I rode to the Winterberg (Sauerland) area in Germany, where I spent the night in a quaint German hotel. I spent a leisurely evening watching (German) tv and took a walk in the morning. After lunch, I returned home. I drove a total of about 600 km, not too much for a weekend. Sunday afternoon, I was very happy to see the girls and Pieter again, but I will definitely want to do this again. Ready to roll!
