Entering country number 10, Montenegro. The borders were fine this time compared to the last one I went through. Kotor will be in the next video but in this one we leave Dubrovnik and Croatia and cycle along the coast to Montenegro.
Oh, start again. Hello. Long time no see. Uh so this is from probably about a week ago now, but um leaving Dravnik just kind of going along the uh going along the dock. Um the bike shop is just across the water as well. I’ll speak about that a bit more later on in the video, but we didn’t do what we wanted to do this day, but it’s one of them. Not much you can do really. Um yeah, so we’re heading towards um Montenegro. We had one more night in Croatia and then got into Montenegro. Um but I just love Dravnik and Croatia in general. Dubnik is a great city and also while I was here um Liverpool obviously played Spurs and we won the game which secured the the title and there was a so random there was a pub in the old town called the Cop and obviously the Cop is like a stand in Anfield Liverpool’s home ground um it was like a full Liverpool themed themed bar and they obviously had the game and like it was just full of Liverpool fans. It kind of felt like home a bit or well felt like Liverpool a bit. Um yeah, it was Yeah, it was pretty pretty great. Um I asked the people behind the bar like why why is this here? And they were like, “Oh, the uh the owner when he opened a pub um really wanted it to be a Liverpool like themed pub.” I was like, “Oh, are they from the UK or whatever?” They went, “No, we should be de Bronik, fair enough.” It was just a really big Liverpool fan. Everyone that worked there was a Liverpool fan. I I don’t think you have to be one to work there, but everyone is. And the only people that aren’t Liverpool fans that work there are kind of there for like temporary summer work or whatever. Um, yeah, that bow was pretty cool. In fact, I’ve got a video of it that I’ll put on now. [Music] So, yeah, that was that was pretty cool. Um, started to rain later on in the day, but you know, it’s all right. It’s just just a bit of rain. Um, the traffic wasn’t good at all leaving the city. There was some like marathon. In fact, it was the same day of the London marathon. There was I guess the Dravnik marathon the day before this. So I think the traffic’s still a bit like messed up cuz obviously all the roads and that were were closed. Um but yeah, this is the stretch out of uh Dravnik. Heat. Heat. Good. Heat. Heat. Heat. I just want you to hear something. I don’t [Music] know. Heat. Heat. Oh, I really got there. Oh, that’s too much already. Oh, no way. Now, not [Music] bad. Heat. Heat. It’s all about look at the view. See dead. [Applause] I’m going straight away. I love going [Applause] [Applause] I just Heat. Heat. Back up shortly. Uh today’s just been just been one of those days unfortunately. Um, I left well uh I wanted to leave the Robnik at about half 10 this morning. Uh, which I was ready to do, but I got um to where my bike was and it had at least three punctures in the back wheel. I kind of knew it was going to happen at some point because the the actual tire itself was like really really worn. Like there was basically no tread on it. So I knew it was going to happen. Um and it was like cracked and stuff. So, you know, it it was inevitable. It was just a case of when really. And although it did completely change what I wanted to do today, I’m glad it happened in a city where I could get it fixed and not, you know, out in the countryside of Montenegro. [Applause] Um, yeah. So, I’ve got a new tire. Um, and instead of going to Montenegro, we’re sailing in Croatia in a little town called Molinat tonight. So, about 20 km away. It’s It’s half 2 now. So, uh, we wouldn’t have made it to the campsite until about 6:00. And I’m really sweaty. Like, I need a shower. Like, it just didn’t make sense to me to to do that. Um, so in Croatia for another couple of days. I mean, it sounds like I’m moaning. I’m in Croatia. Literally nothing to moan about at all. And then after that, we’ll go to Montenegro. uh probably around Tivat or ju just across the bay from Tivat. So like halfway to Couture and then it’ll be Couture the day after which looks pretty epic. But yeah, one of those days. Hello. Uh day 63 I think. Um, we’ve just crossed uh the border from Croatia into Montenegro. Country number 11 potentially, I think. Um, it’s hot. It’s like well I mean it’s like 24 degrees but when you’re cycling up hills in Koa at Montenegro it’s less than ideal. Um, we’re camping tonight by the sea on an actual uh campsite this time and then tomorrow we’re heading to Couture and staying in our first hostel which I’m a little bit I don’t know. I mean, I’ll wait till we get there, obviously. But I’ve just got this thing where hostiles are a bit like scuzzy, but I guess we’ll see. We’ll see when it happens. First sight of the beach in Montenegro. Look at that. Wow. Wowee. I think that’s her sign there. So, I’m not really sure where the campsite is. I think it’s kind of over there somewhere. Still got 17 km to go. So, yeah. Wow. What a place. Hello. So, we’re on the stretch to Cotto now. Um, we had to get a ferry just across. It’s like the the smallest bit of the of the bay. Uh it’s only like 15 km ride to Cot. We camped pretty close to it last night. Um on the ferry, this guy came up. He had like a a fancy camera. Was like, I’m going to take some pictures of you in the bike. So I was like, “Yeah, go on then.” Um so yeah, I’ve got a few got a few nice pictures of it now. He’s going to email them over to me at some point. Um yeah, that’s pretty cool. We are having like a just a chat about what I’m doing. Um, so yeah, I’ll obviously put them in a video if and when they come across, but that was pretty cool. Had like a had like an interview. I mean, he didn’t obviously film us talking. He just took pictures. But yeah, that was pretty pretty epic. Look at that. Whatever you want. Help. Hello. What the hell? What the hell are you? The hell out of here. The hell you Oh, God’s sake. Is that it? It’s not 12 km. Is that it? Where is it? Not on me. Lady of the lake, a little island there. to know that’s not it. It’s a nice door still there. Oh my squeaking away now. Oh, his mouth is Oh, so annoyed. Talk to you that We don’t need Take it. [Laughter] little rat dog. Listen to it. Yeah. So, like I said at the start of the clip, this is um on the way to Cot, just getting into getting into the bay now. Um we ended up staying in Cot for four nights and then I’m in Tivat now um at the time of editing this. Um I think Cotle is probably is probably the highlight of the trip so far. Not necessarily just I mean the place was like beautiful. It was really nice place, but I think just uh kind of what I did there was probably the like highlight of the trip for me. Um in a minute there’s a car that Oh my god. I mean, you’ll see it in the video, but Oh, so annoying. A completely complete head loss from me. Oh, I got so rattled. It’ll come up in a sec. But yeah, frustrating. Um, I’ll put all the stuff from Cot in the next video because it’s already half an hour. So, um, I’ll stick that in the next one. The guy from the ferry still hasn’t sent the pictures over. I don’t know if he’s like forgot or if he’s just keeping him for himself for some weird reason, but um, I’ll chuck them in the video if and when I do end up being sent him. Uh, but yeah, this is just getting into Cau now. This is the going to be the end of the video as well. Obviously, everything else after this I’ll put in the put in the next one. So, thanks for watching everybody. It’s cold. Are you seriously being on me? You I stopped in the middle of the road. Drive beep beep. Not bad. Look at him. There it is. Holy crap. Disgusting.
