Salute ALL hi ;-)

Today in the city Essen that I live right out side of they closed 60 kilometers
Of the mane highway A40 that runs right through Essen, it was only open to
People walking and on bicycles from 11 morning till 5 afternoon, there was
Over 2 million people that attended this event as it’s a once in a lifetime happing,
Things like this have been going on all this summer here in Essen as Essen was
Voted culture city of Europe this year for 2010, so I road my bike 120 kilometers
Today 60 up and 60 back, have a look at a few photos.





So if someone should ever say to me go play on the highway I can say back…
I already have… :mrgreen:

Yes 120 kilometers, and it was my first bike ride of this summer and
I felt way out of shape for it but I made it through
Essen is a nice city as far as citys go, but I live in a nice little village
About 30 kilometers out side of Essen and I really like the quiteness.

Essen is one beautiful city, been there several times.... but stop me if I am wrong, isn't the train still active?? Why are those dum-dums walking on the track, those trains are quite, fast, and deadly!!

Essen means 'to eat' in German. I love european food, particularly schnitzel. It's some delicious stuff.
