SSS Raid: Šopska Salata i Šljivovica Raid!

Very short and intense trip through the Balkans, 10 days, 4500 km in total, around 1200 sad kilometers of motorway for passing through the Pianura Padana. The Beast dealt very well with all this.

The objective of the trip was to push the Beast to its limit and it worked. A couple of stuffs failed but I was able to repair them so now I really know what are the next steps for improving the Beast.

Leaving home, the first idea was to change the tyres in Bihac or Sarajevo, in the end I've changed them in Skopje.

I've been riding a lot of kilometers per day if you consider that I've been in Skopje for 3 days without riding.

I will let the pictures talk, for more detailed reports you can have a look at the facebook page.

 Zeljava Airbase, old hangar.


 I've shared an apartment in bihac with those people from Oman, it has been lovely having breakfast with them.

 Sarajevo, the old bob slope of the Winter Olympic games.
 A road in Bosnia on an old railway.

 At some point there was a fallen bridge. I had to change plan.

 Somewhere in Servia, I will have to visit it more in the future.

 Few kilometers away from Skopje, wrong tube was fit in. Now that I'm home I've realized that even the rotation direction is wrong. 

 Ohrid lake, albanian side.

 Somewhere in Albania.

 SH75

Somewhere near the SH75

 Somewhere near Golëm.

 The broken support of the fron frame.

 Fixed with fine engineering.

 On the road to Mostar for welding the support.

 The Beast could feel free near Prisoje in Bosnia.

 Croatia, near the Mali Alan pass (This is not the road of the pass).

Croatia, near the Mali Alan.

That's it. A short and intense trip. Amazing as always. Now it is time to get improve the Beast more, in order to have the almost perfect machine for travelling.
