I rode from Lindau, a town on Lake Constance to Rotterdam along the Rhein in 2011. It was July/August and had really nice weather. I did it on the fixed gear so was travelling pretty light but camped and staying in hostels, lots of them are in converted castles. There is one in Bacharach just down the Rhein from Wiesbaden.
If you can, I'd suggest getting to the Rhein Falls when in Basel even it means taking a train on the way back. Its the largest waterfall in Europe by volume i think. Really stunning and very noisy. There is a YHA hostel right on the cliff if you were to stay.
Some nice camping on the Rhein in Strasbourg and in the Black Forest region.
It's a great ride. Very jelly!
