Our journey unfortunately approaches the end. We drive again direction the west and leave the Slowakei. Our goal for today is Telc with their town centre ranking among the world cultural heritage. But still well 300km distance before us is appropriate for us over Partizánske and Banovce toward Váh leads. Still the weather class is however somehow becomes it more stifling and the sun disappears from time to time behind veils.
We drive again little traveled side streets and actually give it not particularly, until we come to the tschechischen/slowakischen border. So far we became always through gewunken, but stand here at one time a dog relay, police car and the Grenzer take it completely exactly. Everyone is asked "where", "from where" and which we to want. That our Guides yet did not experience. Clearing-up will give it in the evening in Telc and will still continue to employ the thing me tomorrow.
Irritated we drive on something. Traffic takes too and soon we again Bruen reached. Unfortunately we must take also times a piece of motorway, which is for motorcycles vignetten free. As soon as we can do go it again on the highway to the Jihlava along over Trebic after Telc. Sultriness does not increase clearly and the cloud formations gives an idea of anything good. In addition, the distance pulls itself somewhat, is simple here owing to good roads to drive.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon we reach then Telc. Deniz leads us directly across small lanes into the town centre, which is closed for traffic actually. In the backyard of the Hotels Cerny Orel we can subordinate our motorcycles in the garage. After a short shower still time remains making with sun a few pictures from the old part of town really worth seeing to. Unfortunately the business is in the meantime occupied by junk shops in the arcades, but over it one can see away. Still the weather holds itself.
2 motorcycles at the place excite our attention. BMW with many stickers and bad customs traces. Also the owners are short time later a married couple, which undertakes a world record attempt in the longest continuous motorcycle journey. They stop off a few days here in Tschechien. We plaudern a little in English over their and our journey and make a few photos. In the meantime the sun disappeared and thunderclouds piles up themselves up.
From the two we experience also, what had today at the border for a background: in Prague is today the European meeting of the Hells Angles. In such a way some explains. Still I continue to think nothing and rather watch myself, which I come dry foot into the hotel, because the sky opens its air-locks.
By means of the arcades at the place we to some extent reach drying our restaurant for this evening. It gave with reserves probably a misunderstanding and in such a way becomes it a little closely, but no abort does to a successful evening. Tomorrow everything is too ends and talks in such a way we over the past days and enjoys again the Czech beer of the barrel.
Back in the hotel only the driven distance remains drawing addresses and contacts for us in into the maps (for those, which no government inspection department has) and again to exchange. We want to collect and us to write be able finally still the pictures.
Thanks to all, it was much fun to travel with you.
