Ukrainian Carpathian extreme tour

On the 26th of july we're going to start from Lviv city southwards. The track includes mountain trail routes, 80-90% off road, less then 20% on road. We take all the camping stuff with us. Once a day or two days we enter some villages to buy food. Track goes up to Rakhiv city in the southern part of Ukrainian carpathains and we're going to try to get up to the Pip Ivan mt. which is 2020m. hight with an old ruines of observatory on it.

I go on crm ar, friends go on suzuki drz250 and some other 250s. The whole trip would be about a week.

Of course it is quite far away for British and Australian guys, but riders from the eastern Europe can come easily! So, if you have any questions, you're welcome! ;)

Oh no, man)) ttr's headlight is small if compared to this one. That is suzuki djebel. the same as suzuki drz250, but it contains 16 liter tank and this great light ahead! It was developed for japanese market

You can ride comfortably even at night, i did it quite often! But it is a drawback on the off-road. It is really heavy and you can broke it quite easily =) just take a look at the aluminium frame of the headlight and you can see a lot of damage on it))))

Being a poor speller myself I don't normally comment on spelling by others, but I couldn't let your mistake go uncommented on, it's spelt Rambliars ;) , and not without good reason.
