07-29-2014, 02:13 PMPlan to discover Mazury lakes region in Poland appeared in my head in November, when I received an invitation to a religoious ceremony of
Holy Communion of my Goddaughter.
hmm, how shall I shoot three birds with one stone?
Beginnig of the motorcycle season for China Motorcycle Club (KCM) in Poland in Brok 1-4 May and a week later communion.
Distance from Brok to Mazury region only 160km.
I have studied Uncle'a Google Mapsevery day,maybe this way, perhaps through the park Kampinoski. And maybe, maybe maybe.
One moth later i had Vacation request signed by the proxy in my hands. Yupii.
4 Days before my planned Vacation my request was revoked. I had to go to KCM meeteing 600km one way, than 600km home.
To bee 4 days later back in the saddle.
With additional "help" came into my wife's boss who wanted to give her vacation only for a day of communion.
So i can go by bike... my wife will stay home (otherwise i must go by car ;-( )
I was already packed on Wednesday 8 May to start right after work. The the destinantion was Sochaczew.
I have there i friend with i have studied.
I was Convinced that the road by Kluczbork and Praszka is smooth as a table, therfore i was not in a hurry.
I saw this road a year earlier, in June, they where renovating it. i doubtet that they do not finished it yet.
But instead of a new smooth road i encountered several miles of the same milled asphalt.
As ussually in Zduńska Wola i stopped for junk food in McDonalds.
I did not want to go through the traffic jammed city of Lodz. So i asked the natives which way is the best to avoid jamm.
The proposed route i can recommend to all who want to bypass Pabianice and Lodz. Zduńska Wola, Szadek, Łęczyca (founded in the ninth
century, has plenty of sights to see), Piatek (geometric center of Poland), Łowicz, Sochaczew.
I was already quite late,and the friend of mine was waiting for me at work to hide the motorcycle in company garage.
I decided to explore these attractions at the way home. Going this route are you have beutifull sights.
About 7 PM i was at place. We went out for Pizza, some beers and wine.
Next day in the morning i had to pull off from the bed by 7 AM.
After drinking coffee,maybe two i went "gently" on.
Without a breathalyzer i moved first in the direction of less frequented roads.
The first goal was to visit the Żelazowa Wola.
In Zelazowa Wola is a branch of the Museum of Frederick Chopin, of course admission is paid, to see is an EMPTY palace of Skarbek family
where father of Frederick was a tutor.
In the palace are a few manuscripts of Chopin on the walls. In fact, it is not worth paying admission, unless you like to sit in a
beautifully decorated park and listen to the music of this composer (for exapmle with a pipe and god tabacco).
A year ago, I managed to sneak in there for free. This year I decided to just sip a pic.
The next accommodation I had in Nidzica, but I hate the number 7 road and on the road number 50 there plenty of trucks covering the views I decided to continue the journey by using, where possible, provincial or municipal roads.
It was a god choice: Road no. 705 was empty(!) and smooth as the skin of a baby.
The same goes for the National Park in Kampinos
A bit further, surfaces were significantly worn and had a considerable amount of repairs. (Provincial road no. 575)
I would not recommend this road to drive by car. With a motorcycle you can safely drive 70-90km/h.
At this area captivated me meadows and woods and wayside chapels.
to be continued...

07-29-2014, 06:15 PMI do not know Martin and i do not know a lot people who rides motorbikes with 1200ccm engines.
I mean BMW R1200 is a beutifull bike, but there is no need to have such to travel.
In the oposite ,for this amount of cash which you must spend to buy it, you can make a tour around the world with one (or two, when the first is broken) chineese moto.
I know it is maybe strange thinking, but i will never buy not a chinese motorcycle, i love them.
In our Chineese Motorcycle Club are most often people who started with an Chineese bike and than buy a bigger japaneese or german bike, or people who rides Chineese bike and don't even thing to change to another.

How many members do you have in your Chinese motorbike club ?. At the next meet up take some pictures of the other members bikes and post them here on MCM . It would be nice to see what people in Poland consider to be a good Chinese made bike ."Arguing on the Internet is like running in the Special Olympics, even if you win you're still retarded"

07-31-2014, 06:19 AMI wanted to see the Polish biggest river, Vistula. The road led me along the river, but if you will see the river you must geto on the
embarkment. Often you will see trees in water and junk... But at least i found a place to take some photos (Dobrzykowo).
The weather was not very pleasant, but it was not cold.
In Plock i chosen route 560 and got to Sierpiec (They produce there quite tasty beer), and then road 541 and 563 in the direction of
Mlawa. The quality of roads are from satisfactory to good, when it comes to class provincial roads.
Most provincial roads, unfortunately, does not have parkings. So it's hard to stop to eat and take a break. There are only
gasstations,which also usually has no benches.
In this region you can often meet the giant windmills that produce electricity. A clever motorcycle rider knows how to use them ...
In the village Kuczbork, I found a church. It was not open (?), it is for me strange, how can a church be closed at day time.
On the occasion of visiting the church, I looked at the map I founded shortcut to Dzialdowo.
I love to travel with side roads the are barerly wisible on map. As you can see you can find there not very common views:
Tha last two photos are taken in the middle of nowhere. This was just in a middle of a meadow. It's a the old type
domestic cellar . Interesting is the fact that I have not found traces of the foundations of houses.
A friend of mine, Solist of the Vinyl Music Band, described this thing as a "classic refrigerator unplugged"Last edited by beniamin82; 07-31-2014 at 06:39 AM.
