• I've been planning a route from London to Athens and some people told me not to go along the valleys and the main road (easier, flatter routes) in the Balkans, purely because there are gangs operating and you could easily get attacked with your bike stolen and you robbed, before even realising it. Some areas are pretty rough, and that's not the landscape I'm talking about. So better of via remote paths, especially when riding at nighttime..

  • I'm sure they mostly are. But there are always exceptions so when in the wild, you can't expect everything to be ideal after hearing all these stories.
    I had no clue until I was told about such stories.
