Day 7 - Shkozë to Fushë Lurë
The day starts with some rain, just a little drizzle, kind of nice after last days' extreame heat. The first part is road, first down the valley and then a climb up.
Half way through the climb I hit a rock and my front tyre gets a pretty big side…

Day 6 - Dragoc to Shkozë
Today we go back to our original planned route! Direct from the start we hit a gravel climb, the terrain is well packed and we really enjoyed it. The descent afterwards was flowy and real fun! We were so happy to find some smooth, well packed, gravel finally.

Small nice roads from Grahovo, a bit up and down, rollercoaster fun.

Then descend all the…
