A good 100 bikers had gathered on Sunday afternoon under the motto "Mother's Day Greetings from Motorcyclists" at the Wieskirche for the very first motorcycle blessing after the exit restrictions were relaxed. They received the blessing from Pastor Gottfried Fellner.

Wies - “The motorcyclists have not been allowed to ride so far and several motorcycle consecrations have failed in Bavaria. We therefore wanted to offer the opportunity to combine this with a nice trip, ”said Gábor Kovács, chairman of the non-profit organization Blue Peers from Munich, which had invited to the spectacle. However, the weather was not at its best in the morning, which is why not all of the 176 people registered had come to the Wieskirche.

The Blue Peers are a crisis intervention team for motorcyclists and work together with the Oberbayern Süd police headquarters. In addition to accident prevention at accident focal points, they also offer first aid, driver training and practice exits for beginners.

Flowers and candles in the luggage

Those present had brought flowers and candles to the meeting, which were placed with the necessary safety distance and individually in the containers in front of the altar in the Wieskirche for blessing. Afterwards, Wiespfarrer Gottfried Fellner blessed the motorcyclists and their machines with a small ceremony in front of the church. "It is a wonderful thought," said Fellner, who had received the motorcyclists with the apostle Paul’s greeting and who, in prayer, commemorated all mothers and mothers, as well as traffic victims. After he had sprayed holy water towards the meeting and wished him a happy return, he found: "Now I blessed you on Deifi come out!"

"A great campaign and also great that you can ride a motorcycle again in Bavaria," said Antje Hassenzahl, who traveled 426 kilometers from Großgerau with her Yamaha XJ6 Diversion and thus had the longest journey. Her club colleague Kilian Reithmayer from Ottobrunn showed a bunch of meadow flowers that he had picked on the way for the occasion.

The members of the “Motorradfreunde Pfaffenwinkel” from Peiting and Schongau did not quite have it that far. "We strictly adhered to the exit ban and took the first exit today," said Werner Vicario. He found the action at the Wieskirche good. "Impeccable!" Also confirmed his club mate "Grandpa Joe". The motorcycle friends Pfaffenwinkel were also pretty much the only ones who could arrive dry, since it had stopped raining shortly after 11 a.m.
