Mosel to Mainz

interior of a church I stumbled into in Mainz. It was a really impressive place with paintings over most of the walls and ceilings.

Couldn´t work out if this was a bloke or a lass..? Damn big organ tho...

there´s no escaping the games indus... ;) I´d love to hear John Vattic in German...

Detail of the ceiling of the church in Mainz.

Mainz old town... a really good selection of beer houses here, and I tried my first black beer... :)

Knobi Bon Bon...

Mainz Dom.

At the top of the climb and knackered...

As we´d taken the wrong river, we had our work cut out first thing to get from the Mosel Valley up and over to the Rhine. It was a big climb that took us one hour just to get to the top, then we had to get across which was about 25ks, then we had to regain lost ground and get to Mainz... my legs were like jelly at the top but the ride down was class..!!! We ended up in a beautiful gorge that led into the Rhine again and it was good to see it..!!!
