Did that same cruise first week of June.  Had very high water due to heavy rains further north.  It did affect our cruise.  Sounds like your trip is going to plan.

According to Waze by car.

@Tractorhead lives in a rural farming area, though, so licensed tractors on the road are not at all unusual!

 

Only part of the trip is on an autobahn and only parts of those are “open” speed. Waze assumes 120 kph (~75mph?) for the Bahn’s “open” parts and the posted limits on the rest. 

There are signs along the open sections suggesting “130 ist genug” (130kph is enough). During my invulnerable age, I averaged about 135 from Wien to München with a brief spurt up to 180.

Hi Gregor, i live between Rosenheim and Munich little bit in the „Outback“.

If you like a Meet and greet we can see us on Friday, because i didn‘t work on Friday‘s.

 

Maybe if there is a littlebit time on Hands we can Visit Munic and i can Show you few Nice Spots there.

Just a suggestion.

Btw about speed limits.

in Cities mostly 50km/h

 

...some Cities reduces all traffic down to 30 Km/h... 🤐🤫🤪 😎

 

 

With a normal Car

on Landstrasse ( outside of Cities) are allmost 80 Km/h

if there is no other speedlimit Sign you can go up to 100Km/h.

with an RV just 80 Km/h

The Sign for Landstrasse is 

 

 

 

If you see this Sign, all limitation ends

 

 

 

 

If you see this Sign you go on the Autobahn.

 

 it depends if it is restricted or not.

if it is not restricted you can go as fast your car was able to go

or as fast as your personal skill allows you to drive comfy.

RV over 3,5 To are restricted to 100 Km/h Trucks to 80Km/h but most running 90Km/h.

 

 

( Btw. Everywhere in Germany 

We have allready a suggested Driving Speed about 130Km/h since the fourties or fifties, 

but that is just a suggestion that was made in a timeline where most Cars wasn‘t able to reach that speed) 🤣

That is the reason we have no real Speed Limitation except the electronic Speed Traffic regulation.

Hey Tractorhead, I hope you are not involved in all the flooding happening in Europe right now. Apparently we took our vacation at the right time. The Danube is at going crazy. We would have had to cross Euope by bus. as no cruise boats can go at this time. Are you near a river?
