June 25th, 2009Visa for Croatia
June 17th, 2009Good news for Ukrainian and Russian participants, this summer we do not need a visa to enter Croatia. I receive this info directly for Croatian embassy in Kiev.
Bringing your bike
June 2nd, 2009Bike can be brought by bus and train. (inter)national busses will charge 1 or 2 euro for it , just as with other luggage items. Drivers/conductors might have trouble with the bike (which takes too much space, is in the way while it’s high season, etc.) On Serbian railway ticket for bike costs €10 euro, but over the border Macedonian conductors tend to make trouble about it. Perhaps you can make them happier by wrapping your bike up in some cloth or take out the wheels to make it more of a ‘clean package’. In all cases, just insist. Say you are already far on your way and just have to bring your bike, show your ticket, be friendly, insist and it will work out.
Travelling tips
