Tired of the Autobahn? Try the Autozug!

Motorcyclists get 25% off for travels before April next year (it’s still a bit cold at that time of year so put on some warm clothes!)

A coworker of mine told me about the autozug in Germany. It’s a train where you can put your car or motorcycle on the train, go get some sleep in a comfortable cabin and wake up in a totally different country the next morning, how cool is that!

Now, I know alot of you will say something along the lines of “why bring your bike if you’re not going to ride it?”. But I’ve tried driving on the Autobahn and though it’s efficient, it isn’t all that fun. I’m talking miles and miles of straight road with no turns here. And besides, how cool wouldn’t it be to get on the train in Hamburg, Germany and wake up in Verona, Italy or Narbonne in France? And you’ll be all relaxed and ready to take your monster out for a ride south to the east coast of Spain or deep into Italy or over even over the Alps!

This is something I’ll have to try sometime.
