Well, here it is! Mobile blogging for mountain bikers is a reality! I doubt I can claim a first, but I am very happy about this. I am writing this blog entry from a vantage point on my nearest “mountain”, the Fruska gora near Novi Sad, Serbia. And here is the view as I am seeing it now:
Nothing spectacular, though it was a bit of a slog getting up here, using a nice dirt track I found - can still feel those “winter legs”. But the point is that I CAN “mobile blog” (that’s if Mrs. D lets me borrow her phone again!), and this is going to be great for a blog like this - I really want to show you a rider’s view of mountain biking in Serbia and this will let me do that! Watch this space (or subscribe to the feed) for more soon!

Keep the photos coming. I’m looking forward to going back for the first time in over 20 years to visit my family. Interestingly, my uncle lives in Sid (sheed) at the foot of Fruska Gora. Maybe his house was in the distance in your photo?
Thanks,
Vlado
20 years is a long time!
Actually, Sid is more or less at the other end of Fruska gora, practically by the Croatian border, so no, unfortunately your uncle’s house won’t be in the picture.
But I wouldn’t mind a little ride to Sid - it’s quite a long way by bike, especially the Fruska gora way, there is no quick route, unless you actually cut through Croatia, which shortens the trip, but it’s not as nice.
I’ll certainly post a picture of Sid if I get there!
