The Balkans, is More Stories Tomorrow's second adventure together, an exploration of lands less travelled. Three friends, three countries and 500km of some of South Eastern Europes most under appreciated gems.
Our goal with this film was to capture, concentrate and bottle-up the unique fun and friendship that's formed through adventure, in the hope with sharing it with as many people as possible.

What a bloody brilliant video. Loved the landscapes and the emotional ups and downs and good to see that Anna hasn’t lost her epic sense of humour. Truly missed in the pro peloton, but great to see such a fun and adventure filled life beyond road racing. Inspiring.

After watching a ton of LC's videos over the years I have to say you can almost always tell when there is proper company. Nothing against solo vids but it's obvious how much effect it does have on the experience and the video result when the group of people in it works and the passion returns for LC. Was true for the trips with Francis and James, is true now. Good to see/watch/know and happy for LC 👍

Dang LC...what a trip. You three certainly earned your lap badge. Shades of Morocco with the bout of food poisoning 😢. That scenery is gorgeous. Some of the road surfaces looked deadly. Tom's solo ride needs a Director's cut - he must have suffered a lot. Greatcwork all of you. My legs hurt just watching this. Thanks as always for bringing us along. ❤

We did it like this on purpose, without camping as it allows us to focus on the bike riding and actually cover distance rather than having bikes that weigh 30kg. Maybe another time we’ll camp!
