THIS EPISODE, BULGARIA to MACEDONIA
    Left Kyustendil with a new chain on Komodo and headed to Blagoevgrad, mostly flat, very hot! We then enjoyed a cheap and tasty dinner out in fun Blagoevgrad before hitting our biggest and longest hill climbs yet to the border of Macedonia. Then some more big hills to Pehčevo. Very, very scenic!

    1. Really getting lost in your video's. You two are such an inspiration and a lovely couple. Once this horrible virus is gone i must get out on my bike and do a tour if only a short one. One thing with having to stay at home is i have been fixing up my old bike and learning a bit about bicycle maintenance. So no reason why i shouldn't do something like you have just maybe a shorter distance over just a week or so. My bike is a old orange P7 mountain bike with a xtracycle freeradical fitted on it so its all there for touring!
