I nearly commented on your IG post about it, the issue is you were not running 33mm tyres mate..
Good route though? Rotten luck with the weather, at least you didn't get floods like in Italy

Yeah, 33 would've cut through the mud and I'd definitely have got the KOM on that climb :D
It was a great route, just made evil with the week of rain and we bailed when it came to crossing the bridge to Krk because the missus couldn't even ride her bike. Windy said 95kph gusts, which was why they closed the bridge. We waited for an hour or so in a bus stop (after leaving the hotel late already knowing the bridge was shut) and then decided to fuck it off and rejoin the route later - this was meant to be a fun tour for us after all, it's not a race.
Route was great. Really enjoyed Ljub too - great little city.
hippy

I kinda wish I'd taken photos of the sticky mud when we were actually in it. Was too "Fucked or Furious". This is after the rainy descent and after we'd tried to wash the bikes in hotel carpark. Literally couldn't push the bike up the hill. It picked up so much mud you'd have to scrape each rotation or pull rocks out from the chainstays that it'd picked up. I tried carrying the bike but it was too late - too heavy with mud. Type 2 fun? Nope that bit was just shit.
