Day 41 - Sarah Navigates - Ravno, Bosnia & Hercegovina to Tuli, Bosnia & Hercegovina

July 27, 2026 - biked 60 km (38 mi) - biked 1489 km (925 mi) total

David has been the navigator and mostly the photographer, but this morning his phone didn’t charge. So I took up navigating.

Later that morning, David’s pump came apart mid tire fill up. It just needed a very small hex key to fix but we didn’t have one. We both deflated our tires the previous day when riding over the gravel.

We continued biking on the Čiro trail with views of the mountains, valley, farmland and ghost towns of stone buildings. The ride in the morning was idyllic-paved, flat and hardly any cars.

When we started to approach Trebinje, David noticed a workshop spilling with tools and granite stone.

We stopped and chatted for about an hour about all sorts of things. Very interesting guy who has roots in Serbia. He has three young kids and so we gave him three of our stickers that have animals riding bikes.

We still had quite the climb before our remote campsite, but we made sure to get some groceries before. We made it to our A-frame stay at 8pm and reserved the last option available. The place was so nicely equipped for only 18€.

After a day of rest and out of direct sun, David’s phone started working and charging properly. But he is definitely going to get a new phone right when we get back. Finally!
