Couldn't find a lot around Ramstein... Maybe i didn't look in the right places

Kaiserslautern seems to have a bit to offer...

Bound to be a football match on that Saturday..

What surprise. Ramstein is in the middle of nowhere. Go on a trip to Frankfurt. There is much going around. Kaiserslautern is a hick town.

Given that the OP specified the 24th (One day) and the fact that Frankfurt is around a 6 hour drive.... I might be tempted to think that the "hick town" might be nearer...

6 hours? By bike or what? Frankfurt is round about 130 km away from Ramstein, by car reachable in a little bit more than one hour. Sure, Kaiserslautern is nearer, but there's nothing going around, especially during the week.

Right, there are two Frankfurts. Frankfurt am Main, that's the city I meant, and Frankfurt an der Oder. Last one is much smaller than Kaiserslautern.
