Back in Montenegro briefly then the Rozaje road over to Kosovo, Peja first then onto Prizren. Lovely town! (Pic 6)
Again over the hills to North Macedonia, wee bit of rain here, my heart wasn’t really in it and I think it reflected in my feelings towards this section, I wasn’t enamoured with Macedonia. (Pic 7)
Back into Albania and then onto Ioannina in Greece. It was here I had decided I was going to Patras for the ferry to Bari, Italy. But first, Delphi and then Meteora which is really cool. (Pic 8)
Ferry overnight to Bari and its now I want to straightline home, straight up the flat east coast in frightening temperatures. The hottest I saw was 44 degrees. Cleared Italy in around 8 cycling days and over the Simplon Pass.
I stopped in my old stomping ground of Morzine for a few days (Pic 9) and ended up riding mountain bikes rather than resting which was cool and seeing old pals.
Now it was time to get straight across France which I did in a week, putting in some big days that ultimately slowed me up in the long run. Roscoff to Plymouth ferry. Visited my grandparents in St Austell, took some rest days and ate my body weight before heading home to Dunfermline in 6 days and to the end of a 4 month adventure. (Pic 10)
