We stay near Rheinberg in charming little Orsoy, with Ralph, a kindergarten teacher and musician. He introduces us to the local delicacy, juicy white asparagus. The next morning we get the small car ferry North then pass through asparagus fields and paddocks of horses. It is 77 miles to our next host, Dirk, who lives in Handorf on the outskirts of Münster. The cycle route there is brilliant as it avoids all the busy areas, instead taking us along the riverside and canal , through woods and around fields, off-road but with good surfaces. Dirk cooks more of the fantastic asparagus with hollandaise sauce.
