Bulgaria and Greece Adventure July 2017 Part One XT660R - CCM GP 450 DAKAR
Our drive from Bulgaria to Greece, a roundabout route via Lake Iskar, several flat tyres, an unintentional trip to the Macedonian border, we finally reached Greece. Our first trek was to Meteora using a rough very old copy of the TET trail - we saw 8 wild tortoises within half hour.

Bulgaria and Greece Adventure July 2017 Part Two XT660R - CCM GP 450 DAKAR
We started at Meteora to follow a very early version of the TET route. Towards the Pindus mountain range. It began over a lovely pass then onto the trails, a few river crossings and a pretty washed out trail.

Bunk House Tour 29th April - 6th May 2017
Finished work Friday afternoon, packed ready for the early Saturday morning flight. Landed in Sofia a few hours later and we were on the bikes, hitting the trails right from the hotel. Bulgaria is a beautiful country with limitless riding up and down the wooded hills. No gates, no fences, no people just trail after trail after trail! The guides were expert riders with local knowledge to match- taking us to places we would not ride to on our own. The hotel is great with superb food and friendly staff. It was sad to pack our bikes after a week of what can only be described as "trail-riding heaven". I will most definitely be back to this wonderful place.
