HAHAHAHA!!!!!  LOL...  Say Karl, I wanna ride it.  Would you mind putting it in your suitcase & bringing it back?   ;D

Have a wonderful vacation Buddy...  Can't wait to hear all about it when you get back.

Forgot to bring the transfer cable for my camera but will see if my nephew will continue to be my camera man.

I haven`t been home in two years and spent most of my time in France and Italy last time I was here. So our plan is to spend most of our time with family during this trip. Would be nice to hook up with German Ducati enthusiasts [thumbsup]

From the trees in the video it looks like it's a bit windy there, too.

Hope you're having fun, Karl.  Bring back plenty of Swiss chocolate.   ;)

Scott,
We are 320 km from Ellweiler which could take anywhere from close to 3 hrs or a lot less if you choose to take a high speed trip on the Autobahn...remember...no speedlimit ;D

I was cruising at 135mph the other day (in a car for those naysayers of the 696)...
It's a smooth rush.
