ROADMAP

In the late afternoon, technical briefing and first contact with the motorcycles. The anticipation begins to take shape.

Day 2 – September 5 (Sunday): Budapest, Hungary >> Timișoara, Romania | 320 km

Return to Sibiu with the certainty of having experienced something truly special.

Day 7 – September 10 (Friday): Brașov, Romania >> Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria | 300 km

We descend toward the Danube and cross into Bulgaria. The cultural transition is clear: architecture, language, and landscapes transform. Veliko Tarnovo impresses with its medieval fortress perched on dramatic hills. At night, the illuminated buildings create an almost theatrical setting.

Day 8 – September 11 (Saturday): Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria >> Plovdiv, Bulgaria | 220 km

Secondary roads cut through the Bulgarian countryside, revealing traditional villages and rolling hills. Plovdiv blends Roman ruins, colorful houses, and a vibrant cultural scene — a surprising city full of personality.

Day 12 – September 15 (Wednesday): Sofia, Bulgaria >> Belgrade, Serbia | 390 km
