Hi Julian,

It was a fantastic trip, we would certainly recommend Slovenia and Croatia. It rained one evening in Saltzburg only. The pizza was after a 22km decent. We could only manage half the pizza , took the rest back to the Glamping huts at Lake Bled. Ate half of the half for supper and could not finish it. Not bad for
8 euros.

Hi Jags,

Hows things with you, have you been on any trips lately.

Just been tweaking the bike and camping gear. The Raven Tour is almost faultless, that much so that mate Tressell sold his herpa and built one up for himself. The tent is a Hillieberg Soulo which an improvement on the Atko from the point of view that it is free standing and has a bit more room inside at the expense of the vestibule.
