Seckenhein to Mainz - 101 km (336 total)

Well part of today was certainly the road not well traveled or how ever that goes. This was my longest section of road ever and I hope it stays that way.  My decision to change hotels last night added 10 km to the total and a few wrong which way to go decisions added another 15 km to it. But all in all I survived and here I am in search of a good glass of wine. I am in wine country now. The receptionist told me that as I checked in and asked for a bier garden. I will go eat and then post a few pictures. I did not take many today as all I did was ride. That's a total of 62.6 miles today. I rode with 2 guys from Holland off and on today. They were very nice. The first pictures are from the road.














I am calling this a day. The last five pictures are from Mainz. There is a free (obviously big time) concert at the university. The city is full of the under 30 crowd (I mean 10s of thousands). I have left the streets and am going to bed.
