Re: 2016-04-29 Beograd, Serbia - Vinkovci (Croatia)

The route was completely flat, however in cloudy and cold days ( max temperature at 11degrees) there is also some wind. At the beginning was quite friendly when mistakenly turned south convinced that would be the main intersection towards west, then when back on proper road, still had to find ways to cut light opposite wind and got able to make an average of 20km/h. Also very impressive was even with an entire cloudy day, experienced a very wonderful sunset and arrived to Vinkovci by dark night with a wonderful road on the Croatian side. 

Beograd (Serbia) - Vinkovci (Croatia): 181.40km in 9:11:07 average 19.74km/h, max speed 34.74km/h, trip total: 499.53km, bike total: 14093km: http://www.sports-tracker.com/workout/sergiomfa/4ioepsn82j4kbgef

2016-04-28 Aleksinac - Velika Plana ... Beograd

With a very bad start of the day on which I stayed on an over priced hotel (they claim 4 stars, but everything is extras, including the lousy breakfast which I had no drinks, few food, so don't go to that only hotel in Aleksinac), that affect my entire performance during the day, got sentitive uphill and slight opposite wind which made end up in Velika Plana and then do the rest by train as I had confirmed host in Beograd.

2016-04-27 Sofia (BG) - Aleksinac (RS)

As per first day of the big exercising of the year, the start was really hard, feeling the heartbeat in my ears and getting tired quickly. Lucky most part of the road was downhill, however once there is opposite wind and road works which caused a flat tire and hard to find a calm point to fix the tube, had to inflate almost every 5km.
Funny fact is that a local resident on a small Serbian village was really willing to help and even with language barrier, we sill get along on the wheel repair!
Then once reached Nis, finally the wind was calmer, but was already late to meet my host in Krucevac, so ended up in the only acommodation available in Aleksinac.




 And the statistics with heart rate, altitude and speed in addition to geo location: Sofia (Bulgaria) - Aleksinac (Serbia): 198.34km in 9:41:52, average: 20.45 km/h max speed 44km/h bike total 13789km
