Watch as two intrepid, middle-aged bikers--Vassilis Zambaras and George Tsiros--break the law and create history in the process by being the first to execute a record-breaking bicycle trip on a portion of the still-yet-to-be-opened new superhighway cutting through the heart of Messenias; this sequence shows them on their trail-blazing journey from the village of Oichalia to the Meligalas-Katsarou interchange--just before they were asked by two security guards to cut short their law-breaking escapade. The video is accompanied by commentaries in both Greek and English.
So this is Greece.
ReplyDeleteNothing like a bit of law breaking on video to lift my spirits. the virginal surface is inddeed smooth and then you sullied it.
In some strange way it reminds me of marking our names in wet concrete.
Two Dutch middel-aged cyclists enjoyed this illegally taped underground movie very much. We hope to join the two of you in one of your tours some day.
ReplyDeleteSpecial greetings to Georgos.

Ah, what a treat. And proof of the power in zucchini flowers....
ReplyDeleteFantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe last time I saw this gorgeous Greek countryside it was through a tour bus window. How I'd love to see it now as you & George have, with wheel to the virgin asphalt, tirelessly retracing Agamemnon's return back to Mycenae
Fun!
ReplyDeleteOne thing surfaces after reading these comments: All of you have a streak of "innocent" lawlessness running deep in your veins and that is indeed good to see!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for joining The Captain and Me on this titanic maiden voyage.
