Cycling from Salzburg over Sölk Pass [1788 m] to Ljubljana

I've already forgotten how to fill out these. I sent home <b>Tasty greetings from Kebaba!</b>

I loaded my bike with myself and too much (un)necessary luggage and cycled home over the Austrian & Slovenian Alps.

There is a staff shortage in restaurants. You are <i>greeted</i> with job advertisements at the entrance. And then you wait. Hungry. Waiting patiently.

The most popular village in Austrian promotional ads (alongside Vienna and Salzburg).

Setting up my tent on the top seemed like a good choice. It thundered at night. Next time I'll move my bike at least 10(0) meters away.

The jealous bull wasn't impressed by my visit. His wifes just turned their backs on me.

This time I caused the 2 m³ chaos instead of the storm.

Morning packing is always the worst. Thats why I cooled off in the lake beforehand. Sadly the photographer didn't capture the proof.

I just discovered that the only 5 year old tire is <i>dangerously</i> cracked on multiple places. The tread is still OK.

Up ~ down ~ swim ~ up ~ lunch ~ down ~ sleep ~ up ~ very sloooowly downhill with a cracked tire. A few more pedals and I'll be home.

I kept this travelogue short and sweet. Just like on Instagram: max 10 pictures per post.
