Default 36hrs 1000km Fun Run

I'll add some more pics soon but first a quick quizz.

1 point for guessing the bike?
3 points for the country?
10 points for why I got pulled?





Another Clue

Ifanku

What was the story with the plate then?

Looking forward to seeing the rest of the pics, from what I have heard there are some cracking roads out there.

The pics above are all along the coastal road North of Zadar. Beautifully smooth ashphalt twisting in and out of rocky bays along stunning coastline.

Pic above - looking down Markaska Riviera (Map Here). Beautiful scenery - some nice roads. Busy between Split to Markaska but opens up to nice roads through to Dubrovnik - pics below.


Dubrovnik bridge.


Looking down to the city.

The bike was a hire bike I collected in Zadar - the plate was missing from a prior crash aparrantly. I missed it doing my POWER checks but it made for some interesting riding especially through the border checks on the way to Dubrovnik (you need to pass through 10km of Bosnia). Recommended if you want a cheap bike weekend away, most excellent scenery and roads.

So did you not get in serious trouble for not having a number plate?

In a country where the police hardly bat an eyelid at riders with no helmets I wasnt overly worried... £30 fine which the bike shop agreed to picked up as they hadnt put it back on the bike. It could've got expensive as I havent known a country with more cops and radars - they were the only guys that pulled me from a set of traffic lights.
