we are looking forward to coming together for the German triples run 2026. This time the planning and organisation is in the hands of Ralph and Rita. Originally the idea was to hold the meeting in Weertzen again . Unfortunately due to a lack of sufficient volunteers organising the event there is currently not possible. Therefore we will return to Mendig where we have had a very positive experience. 

The programme will be very similar to that of previous years with shared rides through a beautiful region, good food, relaxed evenings and above all plenty of time for conversation , meeting old and new friends and enjoying time together.

Our base will once again be the Hotel Hansa. The following rooms are available to us. With good occupancy accommodation is possible for more than 30 people.

Single room 86 euros per night.

Double room 144 euros per night.

Triple room 183 euros per night.

All prices include a generous hotel breakfast.

Camping : 

For participants arriving with a tent or motorhome a campsite is available about one kilometre from the hotel . ( aprox  15 min’s on foot ).

Campingplatz Siesta , Laacherseestr. 56743 . Mendig.

Those staying at the campsite may join the hotel breakfast for 20 euros per person per day. prior registration is required.

Friday 31 July arrive,

The first official day is Friday. Participants will arrive in Mendig through the day. A fter arrival coffee and cake will be available along with suitably cool drinks. For our evening meal we will once again visit the Vulkan brewery and if the weather is fine we will enjoy the beer garden. Afterwards the evening will wind down comfortably at the hotel. The drinks fridge will be well stocked.

Saturday : Ride through the region with an interesting ride through the area. As usual it will take us along beautiful roads to attractive places including a coffee stop along the way.

Afterwards the day will finish with a relaxed drink at the hotel.

Sunday : Post – GTR .

After breakfast the weekend only participants will begin their journey home. For everyone who wants to stay longer there will be a post GTR programme. The time can be organised individually as there are many interesting places in and around Mendig. In the evening we will go out for dinner together.

Monday : Final ride together.

Once more we will set off on another tour through the region visiting several special places around Mendig. Afterwards we will meet in Mendig for a final dinner together.
