I arrived yesterday evening at the beautiful MTB Park and lodge my friend Dixi owns in the northern Slovenian Alps. We're about to start our Alps and Adriatic trip, and I couldn't be more excited. After one of the worst flights of my life (turbulence so bad I actually said goodbye to all my loved ones), it's pretty amazing to be here again.
It's been raining for 3 weeks, so to wake up this morning and have brilliant blue skies is a huge stroke of fortune. The forecast looks great for the rest of the week. We'll be riding hard, enjoying the beautiful Balkan culture, and enjoying the local schnapps.
I've got my helmetcam set up to capture the rides, so stay tuned for some vids. I'll also be posting to our new Community Site as well as our Facebook Group.
