Zipping across Tara

The packet I had been waiting for had finally arrived at Žabljak, a new sleeping mattress. Now I wouldn't have to re-inflate in the middle of each night.

We rode out of town in the afternoon and headed towards the Tara bridge. The route was a superb downhill. Over a fizzy drink at the bridge, Kiran and I discussed the pros and cons of the decision. The only negative we came up with was death, so we decided to do it. We went on a thrilling ride down a zipline strung up across the Tara canyon!

The road towards Mojkovac was closed for traffic. This makes it a bicycle path in my mind. So we rode along the Tara deeper into the canyons. I found a nice spot at an old suspension bridge, and we set up camp for the night. After a swim in the frigid water, we had a picnic and a book reading up on the bridge. After dropping enough boulders into the water, we went to sleep in the tent listening to the gurgling of the Tara.

And today, Schopper and I have now faced 5000 km on the road together!Leggi altro
