Cycling the Balkans: Montenegro & Northern Albania

Cycled the Accursed Mountains in Montenegro and Albania and produced a video about it.

Cycling the Balkans tells the story of how we rented bikes in Montenegro, packed up two panniers each and hit the road, heading from Podgorica to Plav and Gusinje, then to Koplik (Albania), Shkodra, eventually to Tirana, and finally back up along the Albanian coast to where we first started.

It was an amazing trip and our only regret is that it wasn’t longer—but that’s not what we thought when we were in the thick of it, dealing with broken bike racks, surprise mountains, runny sunscreen and the unrelenting heat of the Albanian summer. Just writing this, I miss it already.
