WELCOME TO MÜLHEIM AN DER RUHR
A quarter-century—and you’re part of it
25 years of Blue Knights Germany XVI—that’s 25 years of kilometers, coffee breaks, stories from the road, and camaraderie. It goes without saying that we’re not celebrating this quietly behind closed doors: We’re celebrating it with you. We’re honored that you’ve made the trip to be here—some of you from far away.
So you can focus on what matters most - good conversation, good food, and a round or two at the Zisterne - we’ve put together a clear schedule for the weekend. You will receive a printed copy at check-in. - Cut it out, slip it into your tank bag, and you’re all set.
TOURS
You’ll find the tours for Saturday posted on the bulletin board - please sign up there. The final destinations won’t be set until Friday: We’ll check the skies over the Ruhr region beforehand and then decide where to go. After all, the weather is coming along for the ride, whether we’ve invited it or not.
