In the morning I had a feeling that the skies would unleash a fury on me, and indeed they did just before Gori Town. The heavy snow continued from 11am until 2pm.During this time I sheltered in a petrol station office, where the staff kindly allowed me to eat my lunch and warm up by their electric heater.

I had seriously considered staying a night in Gori, but as the weather eased in the afernoon, I headed out of Gori and over a small pass to just past a small village called Rusi.

Windy campspot near Gori, Georgia

The small farm road I used to get to my campspot for the night was covered in knee deep snow – a real challenge when you have low panniers on the bike.

So you are good at overcoming "challenges". How do you bike through knee deep snow with panniers huh?

Aunty Lyn, you don't. You get off the bike and huff and puff and drag and push and curse the bike through it.
