Georgia
We crossed into Georgia and eventually stopped just outside Tiblisi, having had a few dodgy experiences with the traffic. Apparently its fun to serve towards bikers and see if they fall off. We like to do this overlanding stuff with style.
How to win friends and influence people. Take your bike to pieces outside the front door :) The rain in Georgia was playing havoc with the electrics on my bike, meaning a bad misfire and making for an exciting ride, especially overtakes! We left Georgia in no time at all.
