Cycle Day 20 Down the Ruhr

In Bestwig, we decide to take a train west to the head of the Ruhr. We are behind schedule and want to see Cathy´s Aunt and Uncle who live in Bochum.

The Ruhr is an old industrial area of Germany, now being extensively redeveloped. It is interesting to cycle past factories still making things (unlike in the UK). For example, we cycle past the open doors of
Dehler Yachts. After a night´s camp, we head on down the river, crossing at one point on this lovely wee bike ferry!
