After the two former enduro aces had already traveled to many corners of the world thanks to races, training camps and adventurous tours away from civilization, this time Jérôme and Ludo were drawn to the Balkans. During a conversation with their friend and mountain bike and hiking guide Cyril Ac'h, they found out about the "Peaks of the Balkans" route, a newly created long-distance hiking route. This circular tour connects Kosovo, Montenegro and Albania and rides through the legendary "Cursed Mountains", also known as the Albanian Alps, the most alpine part of the region. The name alone aroused Jérôme and Ludo's curiosity and sparked their desire for a new adventure. And so the two set off to discover the wild beauty of the Balkans on two wheels.
