This was my 4 day road trip. One of the 3 TET routes in Latvia. I covered 850km.🏍
Time is first week of August – sunny and warm☀️🌡
We did some exercises – pumping air in my front tyre💪🏻. Later found out – some lost nail on the countryside road. We stopped at my friend’s country-house, took off my tyre with the help of YouTube🙏🏻.
Later there was must stop and take pictures on the boarder with Lithuania. ✅️ 🇱🇹
After some forest roads when I was on the asphalt I heard some noise in front. Ou damn.. forced pitstop👨🏻🔧 it was mudguard which was broken (flipped in forward direction) and plastic was starting to melt, but again few minutes👨🏻🔧 and we are again on the road😏.
Later we spotted and explored one of the old Soviet Union time nuclear missile bases close to town Nigrande. Took some nice pictures📸 and continued the route🧭…
On the way to the seaside there was one couple stuck in the sand with car…🚙👫 they just wanted to spend night closer to sea…👩🏼❤️👨🏻⛺️ but big sands were too much for VW…😭
So, like it should be, if someone need help, you just do whatever you can.🦸♂️🦸 We helped to get back on the normal surface their car.
Close to the sea, we found some nice camping spot, light a campfire, grilled some sausages and enjoyed great sleep…⛺️🏕🏖🌅
In next day we drove lots of km close to seaside, whether in our side was perfect, sunny…
But we new – in the last part, there will be challenges.
So sunny weather☀️ slowly became in rainy day🌧… road started to become more and more muddy. We decided to stay at friends’ place in sauna house.. it was warm and there was possible to dry our wet gear🏡…
The final day was sunny but all the last km was thru the mud and potholes… lots of them…
In one part of the track there was land reclamation work and all the ditch soil was on the road… it was fun to get thru… but we did it🦸♂️🦸…
Almost at the end of the day I lose some control and there was my fall… there is no adventure without falling.. but everything was ok and we finished our journey in a nice place ”Lači”☕️🥖🥪, where you can buy some Latvian bread and other culinary products…
So my TET ride in Latvia (west side) became to end🏍.. It was fun… lets wait for summer to try Estonian roads🏍🇪🇪…
