Those bikes dont look in running condition, and rusting as well. Did you get by the angry dogs this time?

Dai!!!
Right now I have been held up at the Ukrainian border for 2 hours. They found a bayonet for an AK-47 in the car and they say it is just the same as having a gun in the car.

I am travelling and used it to cut food. I never had a problem with it before. I have had it for years in the car and crossed many borders.Why is that thingy in your car?

While waiting for the police, I decided to update with a few pictures from the happy cemetery in Sapanta in Romania. Lots of crazy stuff on the tombstones, like I told my wife she was fat and she came behind me with a rolling pin and I ended up here.
Here lies my mother in law. Please dont disturb her because I dont want her back home.

Finally the police have arrived and confiscated the bayonet and fined me 75 euros. Have waited 4 hours here by the border. Difficult to argue with soldiers carrying machine guns.
Been waiting over 4 hours now.
The wife is inside the office signing about 56! documents because the car is in her name. They follow the old Soviet style. Same as a few years ago in Hungary when I was held back because of homemade alcohol in the car. Then too the fine was 75 euros.
If I need a translator, I will have to spend the night in jail so she will sign under what looks like chicken scratches.

You are driving around with a rifle bayonet!!!
Probably the soldiers needed one for their own rifles.
Probably. I was asked if it was an original Russian bayonet. He checked up the serial number and told me that it was issued to Russian soldiers in Georgia.
5 hours and 18 minutes and I am still waiting.

With the current situation over there vis-a-vis Russia, you should probably be safer with the M7 bayonet!
Finally they let us go after I paid 30 euros extra making a total of 105 euros. I got a reciept for only 60 euros. He was so open about it. The fine was put into the drawer and the rest into his own pockets.
After that he said welcome to Ukraine and I told him to screw off in Norwegian and told him to lead me back into Romania.
I did skake hands with him when he welcomed me to Ukraine so I did not have to count my fingers.
