We’ve been going a bit slower lately because of the “so hot it cooks your banana in your panniers” summer heat, so this 1000 kilometres sort of crept up on us. After a breakfast of fresh melon, muesli and yoghurt in Novalja (a town on the island of Pag in Croatia), the bicycle computer clicked over to 5000 kilometres as we were taking one last look at the waterfront after early morning espressos. (P.S. planning to find time for a haircut before the next 1000 kilometres!)

Your panniers are so clean!!! Congratulations
PS: The congratulations were for your 5,000km milestone (kilometerstone?), not the cleanliness of your panniers.

Hey Tyler – The secret is the black panniers and dripping sweat on them as we cycle in the midday sun. It cleans them up like brand new every day.
I see you guys are now in Russia! Wow! Looks like travelling by car eats up the miles a bit quicker than pedal power.
