Steady ride up to Peje with a stop off in Giacove where some locals invited me for coffee. Kind of missed a bullet as there were bad flash floods here yesterday - apparently two people were killed. Not so bad today, but still lots of mud and flotsam on the streets.

Big day tomorrow as I head into the Accursed Mountains. There are different ideas as to they got this name - a local told me that the Turks called it that as they were continually thwarted in battle there.

There's only one border crossing option now - the other crossing into Montenegro is closed, and you can't go from Kosovo to Serbia because of Serbia's claim on the country. However, conditions look good, and a cyclist coming the other way tells me that the roads are in decent condition, and no shortage of water.
