Zagreb, once again

A long lunch of home-grown shitake mushroom omlettes and cowboy/ Turkish/ Polish coffee, means I hit the road in the late afternoon. It rains constantly, so I take no break on the 82km ride back to Zagreb. In comparison to further south, the route has very light traffic and wider roads. Some sections are through old forests and on gravel paths. The cycling is enjoyable in spite of being drenched all day. Thankfully, Borko has rescued me from a night under a not-so-waterproof tent. This really all you need at the end of any day biking : shower, warm food and a friendly chat. The weather forecast says that rain is here to stay another week... maybe it was the right decision to abandon this tour early.
