Distance and timing basis

The recorded total and the leg detail need reconciliation. Inspect the leg notes before using this record for timing or navigation. Stops, delays, approach and any separate return travel add time. Basis: producer-declared routed record.

Reading history stays on this device. My road watch requires a separate selection; opening it does not subscribe this ride.

Distance and riding time are measured on the routed road. Check local closures and conditions before you ride.

Waypoint introductions and full write-ups

  1. 1. Borjomi

    Borjomi has been selling its water for longer than most countries have had a currency. The town sits in a narrow, wooded gorge of the Kura River, in Samtskhe-Javakheti, and the mineral spring that bubbles out of the ground here has been famous across the Russian empire and the Soviet Union for the better part of two centuries. The water is warm, salty, slightly sulphurous and very much an acquired taste. Locals will tell you it cures nearly everything, and the green bottles appear in shops from Tbilisi to Tashkent.

    Recorded stop-planning note

    May refer to an earlier itinerary; verify against your selected route before riding.

    Planning note

    Borjomi sits at 0 km, early in the day. Next is Bakuriani.

  2. 2. Bakuriani

    Bakuriani is a mountain town that has spent its whole life being a place to escape to. At around 1,700 metres in the Trialeti range, in the pine forests above Borjomi, it was a summer retreat for the Russian aristocracy and later a Soviet winter-sports training ground, and the grid of wooden dachas and chunky concrete hotels tells both stories. In summer it is sleepy, scented with resin and woodsmoke. In winter the population balloons and skiers fill every cafe.
