Currently (yesterday and today) in Wroclaw in the south of Poland after 2 days in Gdansk (north of Poland - where, according to the original plan, we were supposed to be 12 days ago).
Here's a map of the route and our current location:
The pictures are from Gdnask, taken 2 days ago:
Finally coming into Gdansk/Poland from Vilnius/Lithuania - we had 4 hours of this crapola, riding at 30-50 kph (picture taken at dawn ... night-time was even worse!)
Under the Solidarity Monument in Gdansk ... along with Kathy, fellow member Pawel and wife Beata and Chris, a friend of Pawel's on his Standard Bonneville (the first one to be imported into Poland)
The 3 bikes. After this shot we took a ride north to Sopot and Gdynia. Very cool feeling for me to ride around with the local Triumph boys ... in their home town!
Outside a restaurant in Sopot (between Gdansk and Gdynia further north)
The restaurant entrance has a story to it, but I'll cover that in the write-up.
The bikes on the pier in Gdynia (north of Gdansk)...
The Trio ...
Kathy really liked Chris' Standard Bonneville. I think she wants one now.
I really admired her balancing ability ...
The 'flag on mudguard' ceremony. Thank you Pawel/Beata ... I am honoured and again ... thank you for everything.
The end product (Lithuania is missing).
Near the Old Town's entrance gate ...
Just outside the Old Town's entrance gate ... should I go for it?
Even closer to the gate ... ready to invade?
My new Polish friends.
These two gentlemen (both somewhat drunk) helped me push the bike into the square (engine off).
Stealth tactics!
Right on the square.
The police station is located in the next street.
Pawel, I bet you didn't think we would do it.
The statue of Neptune ...
This building has 2 stories to it, but I'll also get into them in the write-up.
Right in the middle of the square ... for all (police?) to see:
That's it for now. Like I said, we are in Wroclaw now heading south to Prague in the Czech Republic tomorrow.
