It was in the rain that the Harley-Davidson Clubs of Luxembourg and Liechtenstein found themselves in Riquewihr, a picturesque little town halfway between Luxembourg and Vaduz. Riquewihr politicians were also present to welcome bikers and members of postal staff from both countries. The philatelic mail transported to Riquewihr by the two Clubs was then exchanged. Each club will take the mail from the other country at home where it will be handed over to the Post Office. Photos: POST Luxembourg
