Looks great.

Those old Suzuki's are great fun for not much money. I always used to rent one when on holiday in Lanzarote. Top down and riding around the mountains was a blast !

Thanks chap! thumbup

I tend to have 5 week breaks while little bro is away, so we do a decent amount in short bursts. We're lucky in that we can just head off into the hills where you can go almost anywhere you want. No greenlanes, or pay and plays here. We live 25km's apart, but both right at the start of the foothills of the Stara Planina mountains, so always plenty of places to go, even if sometimes it is just trails, rather than the cross country stuff we like to do, (pretty much start at A and try to get to B using as few roads, or trails as possible). Pretty much this sort of thing, rather than mental offroad stuff. Relaxing, fun, and you do get some difficult stuff over ridges, and through forest bots.

We're planning on doing a week road trip to Macedonia to do some cross country stuff there. Lookimg forward to it.

Nice! I guess you're one lucky bd enjoying life without too much hindrance as we have to put up with back here. Scenery looks great there.

In that vid above, everything looks really green and lush. What's the general weather like there over the course of a year?

In the winter we get a good amount of snow, with temps dropping well into the minus Celsius. We've had -20 before and it hovers around that sort of temp all winter.



The summer is hot. Up to 35-40 Celsius. This week is low 30's.
