i hope alls well Yeuop

everything is fine, thanks for asking, I just need to get a new USB cabel and also a charger, because some bastard stole it during the trip..
I should be able to get pictures from my camera within a few days and then I will continue with posting..

Glad to hear you're OK.
Enjoy the ride.

Looks like a good trip. Are the Russian girls very accommodating to poles?

Also maybe I'm just not on board, what does the phrase "What a sulfur" mean? or where does this come from? maybe lost in translation

Cheers.

"What a sulfur" - in polish "ale siara" - means some kind of embarrassing.Idiom, i think, it came from very (seriously VERY) cheap wine, which has SO2 composed.
Can't buy one anymore.

Heja,
dobrze rozumiem po datach? jestes w Polsce i piszesz o podróży z czerwca czy wciąż jesteś gdzieś w rossiji?:)
rękawice są w pytkę:)
pozdro

Subscribed! Great adventure! I wish I hadn't sold my thumper for an inline4.. What a sulfur

Go yeuop!

I only wish I could say that

You guys are so close to so much that is amazing.

Come on mate, don't let us wait here!
Hope you managed to get there.

Jełop masz jaja chłopie. Szerokości i powodzenia. One block on old thumper on alone trip across Russia... this is an ADVENTURE

Keep it coming! Awesome stuff.
Total respect to you setting out on a trip Mongolia on a single cylinder thumper that already has 90,000 + k/ms on the clock.

more pics of chics, thanks!!

Rusian girls are extraordinary beautiful :eek1
In case you have never been to Russia, you do not know how does a beautiful girls look like

And I've been waiting to hear "what does the sulfur mean?"
It's something we use quite often in Poland.

Ok, today I managed to get my pictures into a computer so let's go with the story!!

Day 8

I again get up right after a sunrise. Had a good sleep and feel totally relaxed. This is because of my top secret exercises I do everyday
It's not that hot and even during the day temperatures did not get any high. I am going to Ufa. I met extraordinary Tatars.


They were quite drunk but VERY friendly so you can imagine it was lot of fun But besides fun it was also quite interesting for another reason. They are Muslims and they told me something like "We are Muslims, we don't care about white guys, we just want to live here in peace". Damn, it stayed for a long time in my mind. I've been travelling to Islamic countries for some years and it is always something fantastic
Of course they had to try my helmet




After some really boring days there started being some nice landscapes. Welcome to Bashkiria.


I met a group from Moscow going to Baikal lake. They told me I was extreme traveller. No, I'm not. Am I? :huh





Distance: 500km

Wyjechalem w lipcu, wrocilem we wrzesniu

Two more pictures from day 8.

After one week of riding I said to myself: "Damn, this Mongolia must be pretty close now". I was almost right.



Sulfur.

And another sleeping by the gas station. Very cold night!

Day 9

And again: I get up before the sunrise. VEEEERY cold!! +it's getting windy+ some small rain. It sucks.
Suddenly zip in my leather jacket works no longer :eek1 This is so stupid (yes, you may call it sulfur), never thought that such small problem can cause that much trouble.

I started riding through Ural mountains.


Rather small mountains but I liked it very much!!



I think I like it because it's very cold and there are heavy clouds - very special feeling. I don't know what to do with that jacket. Riding with "opened" jacked is not possible as it is really cold here. So I used some tape and for couple of minutes it worked really good. This is a picture I made for girls to show them how tough I was



So pretty soon I was in Asia. Weeeeeee!!



I still didn't know how to repair my zip so I thought to myself: "Maybe I could wear something ON my leather jacket?" And so I did.
If you want to say something stupid about this idea - just shut up



Distance: 485 km

wow
Have someone sew a new zipper in your coat.
Soon.
I will paypal you the zipper funds

Sulfur

Put the jacket on backwards,with zipper in back!
You're welcome and welcome to Asia.
What a great trip.
