Первая часть здесь: bikepost.ru/blog/98534/Adriatika-2024.html Вторя часть там: bikepost.ru/blog/98616/Adriatika-ijun-2024-CHast-vtoraja.html Вы когда-нибудь задумывались, как люди путешествовали 50 лет назад? Или 100 лет? Или 200? На лошадях Татьяна Ларина добиpалась до Москвы 7 суток, успев сполна насладиться «дорожной скукою». Поезд всего через 25-30 лет после этого шёл из Петербурга в Москву 20 часов. В пятидесятых годах прошлого столетия полёт на лицензионном Ли 2 из Москвы в Ялту занимал 6 часов. Это было то ещё удовольствие болтаться в воздухе в негерметичной кабине с дымящими сигаретами пассажирами. Сейчас за 6 часов можно долететь до ближнего востока, Индии, Марокко. За меньшее время слетать в Дублин. Мир стал ближе и одновременно теснее. Неплохо, да? Но и поезд, и самолёт переносят нас в пункт назначения в виде умных посылок. Наше участие в процессе минимально. По факту — полное подчинение транспортным компаниям. БДСМ без эротики. Другое дело авто- или мотопутешествия. Тут мы сами себе хозяева. Ну, почти. Всё-таки приходиться соблюдать правила движения, обращать внимание на других колёсных сотоварищей. Да, таким образом мы передвигаемся медленнее. Зато успеваем посмотреть страну по которой проезжаем, поглядеть на людей, если повезёт — пообщаться. Можем попробовать местную еду. Эти удовольствия доступны, даже если едешь транзитом.

Снова баггер от БМВ, но посмотрите какой! «Полночь» получилась очень красивой, хотя в некоторых местах рисунок и обрывается (на мой взгляд) не сосем логично.
