It is great riding here, been here for a couple of years and have riddensome of the best roads you could imagine.

Here are a couple of events this summer, there are many more:
Magic Bike Week in Rudesheim (15-20 minutes from Frankfurt) 30 May to 2 June.
Faaker See (European Bike Week in Austria) 3-8 September.

On a side note, hope you have some stock pipes to put back on your bike soyou can pass inspection and register.

in addition to all of the other great events mentioned, there is the Harley Days in Barcelona on 5-7 July that is pretty badass and this year will be the Harley 110th anniversary celebration in Rome on 13-16 June. Those will be some pretty good events outside of Germany.

Plenty of Bike stuff to do over here.

Aside from the great riding in general, there is...

  • Faakersee HOG rally in Austria
  • SuperRally, different country every year, this year is Poland, it is THE biggest rally in Europe, and a great week/end
  • Swiss Harley Days in Lugano
  • If you are up for a challenge, the Swiss 24 hr/500 miles
  • Rome is hosting the European Harley 110 anniversary party this year
  • Isle of Man TT should be on your bucket list.
Thats just *some of the big events, there are smaller Rallys going on somewhere almost every weekend in DE, UK, CZ. Plenty in France and Italy as well. Loads of open air concerts in switzerland. The Cloggies know how to party regularly as well.
