How heavily it was raining that day.No dogs and cats left in the sky.But That was the weather and trip I was dreaming about.That was an experience that I had been expecting for long: riding about 170 km under heavy rain.A jeep accompanied me on the way but honestly speaking; there were times I used to think about my friend's proposal: he suggested me accompanying him in his jeep but I rejected.
Enough with words.Let's start... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() My turn to take shots of that old fart Landy. ![]() Roads sometimes getting worse and tricky ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() What a panorama and a shot ![]() Charcoal for barbecues ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() We went further to the abandoned mine. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I hope you have liked the photos. Ride safely and happily. |

I'd assumed after the non-stop rain we had in the UK that everyone else had a sunny summer.
Looks like I was wrong!! What's the explanation for the marks on the tree trunks, are they from flood water? Thanks for posting. -Simon |

(in Thrace).One can witness four seasons here.Sometimes mild and sometimes very harsh,add snow avalanches,too Some parts of these dusty and rocky trails are in mining areas where they have been digging to get what is essential for glass making. As regards to flood water,you are dead right.And some minor bridges had been destroyed due to the flood and heavy rain. |
