Day 6 - Local in Brno Okres

A quieter day beckoned but still we crammed some visits into the day. Before lunch a trip out to Bystrc so Lilka could show Claire some garden centres. For me they could be at home except for the pond with large turtles basking in the sun.

Next stop Lidl for more provisions and us to get lunch etc for race day.

After lunch we had a short run to Ostrovačice to visit a former student of Lilka, Jiří,  who is into bikes. He has a small collection of CZ and Jawa motorcycles he is restoring plus a modern and modified Suzuki SV650. We eat and drink.

Near his house is this sign:

Guess whose campsite this is?

Then it was off into Brno to meet old friend Ivan Benda. A couple of hours drinking more beer and visiting the bar where the local SOC meet - the Black Diamond. Heavy metal pub. Only us not in black T-shirts.

Jarek and Lilka picked us up and we had another BBQ in the garden. More beer and a fruit based cocktail for the ladies.

Then to bed ready for an early start for the free buses to the circuit.
