Looking at going to Romania in 2015 for about 2 weeks

Just wondering if anyone might be interested in going

Looking at the area around a town called Dava

Hi rat race, would that be Deva by chance?
 
Only a couple of hundred miles from you Clive. Could be interested rat race.
 
Deva's in the West, so less mileage after hauling from the UK.

It's a very nice area, but quite a drive for me (5 hrs ish) so I haven't toured around there much.

Deva, Oradea, you'll find plenty of off-road if you want it. If you come further East, I'll try to meet up.
 
I've just been given permission to express an interest :shock: I guess she will start on about a new bathroom again tomorrow :(

That's 4 already! I can't complain at 5 hours, when you guys are all doing 20 + to get here!

OK, volunteers please, one to bring me a front axle, one to bring a gearbox....

Don't all jump at once! :lol: :lol:
 
I think I could find room for some goodies Clive. :thumbup:
 
Wow Chas!

Cheers, I'll start a list! Do you have a trailer? :lol:
 
A couple years ago did a trip from Bulgaria up into Romania via the Ruse then went to Sinaia and see Peles Castle after that we head off across the mountains towards Bran and another great castle. the bit i like was at Movile there is a load of burial mounds. Got to do Transfagarasan Highway and also did DN67C, the Trans-Alpina.
Also had a day at Poienari Castle, the Home of Vlad Tepes (Dracula) that was good

So for me its time for a return trip, but it would be great to meet anyone there as i have made firm plans what i will be doing

Hey Shayne, I've just watched your "trying to make a noise" video, I think you've just blown your Romania 2015 trip with comments like that!

2 years bathroom duty coming up for you! :lol:
 
Great pics ratrace, Peles is 20 minutes up the road from my house!

The cobble street with the market all the way down (to the left and behind the camera in your photo) was the last part of my bike downhill run from the top of Sinaia!

Did you go up the mountain?
 
no did not have the time as we had trouble with the defender on the way and had to get to Bran so use the forest trails
 
Well, if you come to Romania in 2015, and if I can persuade you to come as far as Sinaia or my place in Comarnic, then we can take you up the mountain! You can even do some downhill biking if you want, I've got a couple of spare bikes.

That goes for all of you, ratrace, Chas and Shayne. There's room at my place for as long as you want to stay!

At the least we can have one hell of a BBQ!

Cheers!
