Bike in Bol

No wind again today so i ask Vlado, the very nice guy at the rental place, to give me a bike instead of the windsurfing gear today. He fixes me with a brand new mountain bike, an island map, some instructions about the paths, a pump and an extra air chamber. And go! I m a it late coz i spent the morning publishing some post for the blog... The weather is not ideal but at least its not to hot or so i think.
After about 4 km i stop to fill up the water bottles and chat a bit with the owner of a bed and breakfast. Very nice chat with one more very kind person! And then the first nice place, a stop for water and delicious sir (cheese), prosut (smoked ham) and olive oil, all local:

nice place for a break and a bit of local food!

On the way up, its pretty steep...

I m finaly up there on the plateau, the weather egets bader, bit of thuder in the distance, bit of rain here and there but nothing to stop me in me fast and furious ride :) So furious i burst a tire shortly after this picture. Good Vlado gave me an extra tire!

More or less the top, mystical view of the Brac island in the background!

The plateau and track at the top, some old roman water reserves here and a nice track. Music in the ears and speeeeeed!!! nice ride up here. So nice i got "lost" and did not take the right track, ending on the road earlier than i planed. It is not the first time i get lost today, poor map and poorly marked track (rather poorly marked crossings).

The deadliest turn in Croatia... its a bit dark (remember i have no more manual mode on the camera) but check out the car wrecks...

The end of that road was easy but very wet, it started poring down on me suddenly at the corner of a turn!
