JACEK'S ADVENTURES

SCANDINAVIAN EUROPE 2004

Preparations
Before I departed for Poland, I had purchased a new camera: Sony P-73, digital - what a convenience to see pictures just seconds after they were taken!
My preparations in Poland involved getting the bike ready. I used the friendly service of Yamaha dealership in Bydgoszcz : tires, battery, tune-up, air-filter, fixed the faulty charging system.
