Georgia’s Batumi was most definitely the place to meet other tourers!

Cycling along the beachfront from where I free-camped I’m whistled at by Holy + David, they’re cycling from England to Oz, whom in Turkey ‘picked up’ Tom, a Lithuanian cyclist on a two-year five continent tour, later we’re joined by Jose’, a Spanish who had previously met Tom - he's heading for Malaysia, then a few days later at the hostel we meet three Manchester lads, also cycling to Oz. Heading the same way we decide to ride out together, and on the second day out we met Marcal + Ingris, a Dutch couple presently in the third year of their tour, travelling in whichever direction they choose each day.

Here we all are on a bridge making our way up the (extremely rough) Goderdzi 2025 metre pass.

So you managed to get to Georgia despite being overweight/overpacked - do I detect a common theme among your compatriots

To be fair some of the people had been touring for 3 years. They might have had all their worldly possessions on their bikes.

My latest blog-post has just been published, Georgia is a country well worth touring! Scenic, friendly people and very cheap.
