I've been following your report on BR but hadn't replied yet since I never bothered registering over there.

Great report, but too bad you had such sh*t weather. We're leaving on Sunday, and it looks like the forecasts are at least a bit better for us.

The road I planned is about 50/50 between tarmac and unpaved. But I am expecting having to turn back now and then due to blocked or washed out roads. Especially in Montenegro and Albania and on teh return trip in Eastern Bosnia where the floods hit hardest.

Thanks for the heads-up, but I've been before so know more or less what to expect and still have some Marks from previous trips

Glad to see you still had the odd day of sunshine on your trip. You should go back there sometime when the weather is nicer. It is a truly amazing region when the sun is out.

Bags

Hey Phil, just read your ride report. Just wondered how you get on with the giant loop luggage. Does it fit the bike well and work well? I guess you'll know from that trip whether it's really waterproof or not!

I'm just working out what soft luggage to get for mine. Looking at the giant lop stuff and stuff by Enduristan.
