Tour to Germany, Stop at Waffle shop

We pull in to have lunch most of us had bratwurst. After our bratwurst Tony said
"You can't not have waffles at a waffle shop"
So that got all of us ordering waffles.
It's waffle time!

I decided to have no cream on mine

Tour to Germany, Friday Evening

After dinner of beef, a tombola took place Dad and I both bought a ticket. We won none of the big prizes but after Ivan  stood up on the stage and did an presentation about rewarding an the Mike "Stormy" Waters Memorial trophy.

First he said "we're going to reward it to who has the biggest belly but there was too many to choose from", then "who has the dirtiest bike" Every looked at Tony "He's done 1120 kilometres in one day, with his son who travel sick the Mike "Stormy" Waters Memorial trophy is reward to Mark and Ryan".
It was was Dad and I!
I win
   After that prizes were laid out on the stage and our tickets won us a bike cleaner and a helmet bag. Matt asked me if there was any thing he won and I found a lanyard which he kindly gave to me.

Tour to Germany, Back to Masserberg part 2

At the stop Julian looked through his maps and found where a hill climb takes place so we set off to Masserberg (again) and took the awesome road Julian circled. Later when we're on the motorway Tony pulled off, but Julian didn't see (because Tony was a bit too far ahead) so he didn't pull off and we all followed Julian. We approached a tunnel with a sign that said 7 at first we assumed it was 7 meters but it was 7 kilometres long it seemed as it went for ages. After a while of GPS routing we managed to find a way back and get back to Masserberg.
