I now have some experience of the Rureifel, i.e. Heimbach and the surrounding area. The roads are perfect almost everywhere, routes can almost always be planned to avoid the busy roads and if that is really not possible, there is often a (fine) cycle path. On weekdays, outside the holidays, you have the roads largely to yourself, with the exception of a sporadic motorcyclist here and there. The traffic is friendly, quiet and careful (as always abroad).
However, I see a lot of signs saying 'prohibited for motorbikes in the weekend or 'in the evening': that doesn't bode well for the holidays and nice weekends...
Ik heb nu wat ervaring met de Rureifel, dus Heimbach en omstreken. De wegen zijn bijna overal perfect, routes zijn bijna altijd zo te plannen dat ze de drukke wegen vermijden en als dat echt niet kan, is er vaak een (prima) fietspad. Doordeweeks, buiten de vakanties, heb je de wegen grotendeels voor jezelf, met hier en daar een sporadische motorrijder na. Het verkeer is vriendelijk, rustig en voorzichtig (zoals eigenlijk altijd in het buitenland).
Ik zie echter veel borden met 'verboden voor motoren in het weekend of 's avonds': dat belooft denk ik weinig goeds voor de vakanties en mooie weekenden...
