Thanks to a fellow VFR rider (and former colleague) I now have a nice wall decoration...  The scuffed/scratched 6th gen side case put to good use..

Just a ide, get yourself a wall watch mecanism (~10€), drill a hole (to mount it on the case) and make it to a wall watch!

Good this each town has its Johny Cash walking about at 8:15AM....  I reckon he bought a few litres of vodka with the money I gave him to thank him for his help getting her on her feet..

Bought a Natgeo map to mark where I went (blue), slept (green) and was planning to go next (yellow).

No prizes for guessing what the red dot signifies....

:-)

So is the blue dot lower than the red the location of the Hospital?

 

By a more beauty than Lemmy:

Yep, near Rokiskis. This was pretty much just across the border....

It was after ~5,500k into my tour. as I came from Daugavpils.

 

This is ~45 minutes earlier....

That's a real bummer. You had some good intentions in LT with from looking at your map-Vilnius, Kaunas and Siauliai. Beautiful country, as I'm a little biased (grew-up there). The roads, however, can be in inconsistent quality. Hope you can finish the trip someday!

Hi Tiutius,

 

 

The roads in the Baltics were in really good shape, on par with most EU countries (Belgium-Wallonia excluded.....).

 

The pothole picture above was in Riga near the waterfront.  While heading out of Riga, I was looking to get to the Daugava riverfront for a nice shot of this

I entered an area full of lockups (some of which were doubling up as housing) with loads of crap piled up outside. That is where I saw these potholes... by no means a "proper" road..

I really felt at home in the Baltics...
