Made it to Sochi — and here the rain((
How to deal with pasuram and rain? In Sochi the rain too((( Well, okay, there is no bad weather. Piaseczny spaceship and excellent road cure the Blues. Marched from Moscow to Sochi on the M4 more than 1500 km and fuel Consumption Grand C4 a was leveled and now is 7.5 l/100 km ( in the passport 6.1 l/100km). In Sochi A-95-St at 1.5-1.7 rubles more expensive than in Moscow . Better to pour a full tank in Lazarevskoe in Sochi. The price tag — 50 kopecks cheaper. Tank is 57 liters should be enough for the whole trip on roads, tunnels and overpasses Sochi. In Rostov — the roads are excellent, in Krasnodar from the border with the Rostov to Dzhubga, a lot of repair and constriction bands, in General, too. 300 km of road saw 8 posts lovers-professionals video in uniform. This is a clear contrast to Krasnodar route. Passed 1000 miles on the M4 from Moscow and the traffic police only on the posts, and here under the bridge almost every outfit with a little kemerkoy on a thin tripod. Thank you oncoming drivers honk!
Drive these defensive areas for serpentine from Dzhubga to Sochi. At the beginning of the road warms you, turns your lungs, but for the 60 km to Sochi starts to get fun. You sing along to yourself, "a Sharp turn and slope... hold on tight behind the wheel driver". Now I understand the meaning of the word slope. When the road surface even on a straight stretch oblique, tilted, and sharp turns- "Teschin language". Local 23-th region back you ass, you are operating at 60-50-40-30-40-50-50, they breathe you in the back, dramatically overtaking in areas where there is a third lane. And spit on a limit of 40 and 70 km/h. 180 degree turns tower cabs of long-distance rushing straight at you, you feel like from the drop down, then up the stomach rises higher and higher. Our pneumatic suspension Citroen are well practiced these changes. The machine behaved with dignity, I thought he also reads signs))) On the long descent before Sochi was a poster – make use of engine braking. And our spaceship is also reduced speed from 5 to 4, and sometimes on the 2nd went. The engine was fed a low voice and you calmly rolled down the mountain. No idea how to live here and every day to ride for such UPS/downs.
After predtechenskij slides – a system of new roads in Sochi seemed to be some smooth-smooth oasis in the desert. We went to the Olympic Park, before arriving in Central Sochi went to Adler through the tunnel system. The tunnel gives way to tunnel several times. The road is excellent quality and beautifully illuminated at night. That's just a restriction of 70 km/h((( after the Grand serpantinas diet wanted to gain a decent speed, had to keep.
Will gather in Sochi on the machine, do THAT, check the brake pads and the clutch. Radar in the cockpit will not interfere, as well as hygiene packs and some dramamine for the passengers. But all this is minor compared to the road network in Sochi, it is worth to see and feel behind the wheel!
Continue our mission in Sochi.
PS If you decide to stop and rest in Krasnodar – it is better to choose small hotels on the street Fadeeva near the main road, many of them are available for Booking. 1500-1700 for two rubles a night, wifi, a small Parking and a decent level.
