Cheers Borislav....

Now I really want to take a nice bike ride around Bulgaria with a group of friends. When the bike ride is finished, I would like to take Borislav, Maya and some of their friends on a canoe voyage down the Iskar.

That looks like a really nice river to paddle!

Borislav, do you have canoes in Bulgaria or does everyone just use kayaks?

I wish we could all get together and eat some of these good things that I've seen posted here!!!(and of course the drinks too)

That would be a very interesting and possibly frightening event Joel

Alex … no any problem to do a nice bike tour some day in BG. For now, I have a free time 12.07 – 28. 08.
But what about canoe voyage, I am not sure if it would be nice along Iskar river. The river is not as big as you see in the photo above. It is just behind a 10 meters high wall and small electricity station in front of it.
I have not any experience of canoe or kayaks, even I do not differ both them very well. In Bg it is not popular. If here we are 10 people practicing biking, maybe 2-3 are these knowing more about sailing in the rivers.
There is a better river for it in BG – it is Struma river (I have posted here a photo – I am in this river, it is very clean). After Zemen town to Greece border it is maybe possible – it is a distance approx 120 – 130 km. There are 3-4 very very nice gorges along this river, in one of them I know people enjoying of rafting – it is a distance of no more than 12-13 kilometers. I think May and June would be nice for it, when the snow in the mountains is melting and there are much water.

But what about bicycling – here is the perfect place. No problem to invite with us Joel and Mark, never mind Mark has mentioned he has some problems with his knees … I think it would be great …
One more photo of Iskar river gorge.

Too tedious Austin … I forgot my first lecture this term, but my yesterday’s one was:
"Improvement of the machine-tool structure dynamic behavior increasing the damping capacity in its fixed and sliding joints "
…

Well, that sounds very pedantic. I bet you would rather be riding your bike

Here is a little Montreal old school biking memorabilia to make you smile

Yes Alex … you are absolutely right …

So, when you find out that it is the third day you have not any wish to work – it means it is Wednesday …
No way, I was outside for 3 hours … here is unusual hot January …

It's been warm in Texas too, it's been nice.
