28. Presov, Slovakia to Sarospatak, Hungary – 102 km Avg 18.0 km/hr

By Dennis

A fairly flat ride until the final 10k to the Hungarian border where a 3 km 10-15% climb was a challenge. The area near the border is popular with hikers as the elevation is about 500 metres with many hiking trails. And one crazy driver who forced me off the road while jumping the queue in a string of oncoming cars. Maybe he did not like the Canadian flag on my handlebar bag? But the final 25k into Sarospatak was a joy on a dedicated cycle path.
