I just received the Bosnia Rally 2023 official photos so I have a lot to choose from, but everyone loves a water crossing so for #MotoMontag I am going with this.

Fifth and final stage is done. Itโs been an amazing week and I am sure I am getting better and more confident off road. Today started out on wet grass followed by a river crossing. The days drama was provided by a very steep, long sandy section. There was a lingering smell of fried clutch in the air. That and a dry river bed that was not so dry in places provided variety.
Stage 4 finished. We had a thunderstorm last night so this morning was a bit muddy. It was drying rapidly though and once we hit the mountains it was not a problem. Some fast gravel tracks through forest and steep rocky descents with some fabulous views.
It should be stage 3 today, but I have a small clutch issue. So I am going to sit it out and try and get the bike ready for the final 2 days. As compensation here are some pictures of an amazing country.

Another stage, another set of casualties. Stage 2 continued with at least 1 injury I saw in the ambulance, and multiple bikes having technical problems. The stage was shorter than yesterday but still had its share of rocks and ruts. I done my good dead by helping a guy on a GS up a loose rocky incline. I also had a little tumble after loosing the backend on a steep downhill. All well though. To make up for it the Bosnian landscape is really stunning.
And done, ready for the next 5 days.

Five stages, five road books.
Today was a little roadbook instruction and a quick 65km prolog. There were some rocky inclines but nothing too technical. Some riders were a bit apprehensive about some of the muddier sections though and it caused a bit of a traffic jam in a couple of places.
After 3 days, 1672.8km, 5 countries, 1 traffic jam (the entire length of Austria), many coffees and 0 showers! ๐ I am at Adria Ski in #Bosnia ready to start the #BosniaRally. ๐๐
