The day started off with a short ride after breakfast around
the spectacular Meteora pinnacles where we went to a viewpoint for photos of
these wonderful rock formations which unbelievably had monasteries built on the
top of a few of them by some monks in the 14th century. After this
short but amazing stop we continued our journey on towards Turkey, although we weren’t
going into Turkey today as we will stay another night in Greece not too far
from the border so that we can ride as a group through the border tomorrow
morning.
We did some reasonable back roads then some more peg
scraping twisty mountain roads which was fun but tiring before the long boring
motorway part.
David has been finding it difficult to engage 2nd
gear and upon looking into this in a motorway service station, I noticed that
his gear lever was hitting on the engine casing. Bending it out slightly
instantly cured the problem, but we are not sure why it moved in the first
place so we are going to need to monitor this closely.
The hotel was excellent and the all you can eat buffet left
many of us ready to burst! I had a quick stroll around the car park before going
to bed as we have an early start in the morning.
