Michaels bike story part II

The first day in the Panj River Valley just on the border to Afganistan
offered amazing views on the surrounding mountains. However, the street
conditions didn't allow us to appreciate them how they deserve it.
And after the lunch break we realized that another part of Michaels bike
just gave up. The back rack just broke! It is still working somehow, but
never will survive the more extreme conditions in the high pamir.
Luckily we still had the contact to the bike mechanic from Dushanbe and he
has already sent the donkey express with a new rack which we can collect
tomorrow.

After the bikes are repaired and oiled, like we say in German,
'everythings gets fluid'!
But that's a story for another time.
