Can't wait to see this! At about 3:00 you were just a few hundred yards from my house! 🙂 What a nice presentation you did! And congrats for doing the Mangart saddle! What a brutal climb, especially in this heat! Chapeau! 😉
That wooden walkway around the water's edge was amazing along with the beautiful views around the lake. 18% is crazy steep especially for several k's. Hilarious that the man beside you on the first big climb is dying and you're talking ("we did it") to him like it was really easy. He couldn't even speak lol. He may not have made it without you. What amazing and spectacular views and yes, the mountains with the streams and forests are the best in the world. Glad you were able to avoid a collision with the cars. I don't think you've ever met a stranger when around others. Thanks for sharing.
I love the enthusiasm of this girl!!! I have been to both Vrsic and Mangart with a bike myself and let me tell you, doing both of them in one day is fu§% HARD !!! Congratulations!

Can we please have a few tears when you’re moved by the scenery 😂 haha careful what you wish for eh…..damn that’s great service…or I just simply spoke too soon 😉
You are a very strong and determinated girl. I know how hard this climb is so I can say BIG RESPEST. 👏👏👏

You love mountains and forest and rivers? Congrats, you're a Slovenian. 😀
