Spoke issue




Yesterday we woke up in Kotor after a rainy night. But we had a roof over our heads and even if the weather didn’t look very promising it was still warm. But before leaving we saw that Millou had two broken spokes, but after having the same problem a couple of times he knew what to do and after a little while we were back on the road. And to begin with we had a nice tailwind until we turned around a cape and headed south to Tivat. And after a late breakfast we decided to take some small roads towards Radivici. But somewhere we took a wrong turn and ended up on a road that stopped being a road after a while and turned into a stone path. But by then we were high up and we thought the best idea was to continue on until it came on to a bigger road. And after a rainy tricky cycle we finally ended up on some beautiful asphalt and found a little village where we stopped and had a very late lunch. It was raining and we asked a man if we could sit down in what looked like a bar/garage. He was fine with that and later his dad came by who spoke French. And since Millou is French and Julius also speak French they had a nice chat with the man while I tried to pick up on some words=)
 It was cloudy and It got dark very soon. So we asked the man if we could stay there, and for a while it sounded like he had a room in his house for us. But his son and girlfriend were coming later so that didn’t work out. But we got to stay in the bar/garage and a roof over our heads is always great. So we stayed there and had a nice dinner and drank a little rakija. And I slept great even if it was right by a road and no wall to that side.

Today we have made it to Budva and I and Julius are taking it easy at a coffee shop while Millou is out looking for a bike shop because he had another broken spoke this morning and used up his last spare. But today the sun is shining and we are enjoying this beautiful country.
