Rode into Slovakia , my 10th country visited , thru the border town Komarno from Komarom in Hungary over a bridge across the Dunav on Rd 10. Converted all my remaining Ft to Sk ( 1120 sk). The very first important thing to do when crossing to a new country, is to know the exchange rate,so that when you shop,you know whether an item is expansive or not as compared to your own currency. No problem with the custom , followed Rd 63,a very smooth flat road with broad shoulder unlike Hungary. met a Korean solo cyclist Lee cycling from London who recommended a beautiful route along the Dunav to Bratislava.And also a friendly Slovakian Roland who works in the OMV petrol station recommended to visit the Hydro dam in Gabcikovo. Well,all that recommendations have to wait until tomorrow as today I only managed until Narad on Rd506 , 12 km to Gabcikovo , a subsidiary road from Velky Meder on Rd 63.Camped next to a corn farm, a very quiet place away from the cars and trains.
