Delivering Hope to Ukraine - start of day seven
Delivering Hope to Ukraine 
Start of day seven
Hope and I have just 125 miles between us and something quite special. The very idea someone could ride an aging classic scooter from England to Ukraine in under one week to many would be unthinkable / not possible.
When we reach Lublin later today we’ll be less than two hours by car from the Ukrainian border, whilst remaining in a completely safe zone.
One of the underlying reasons for the ride via this method of transport was to show the U.K. people just how close we are to these people in mainland Europe. Ukraine is not on the other side of the world as some might imagine, it’s five days ride on a scooter from Rotterdam, or two days by car.
Todays route looks straightforward enough, but Hope I’m having to coax along somewhat. She’s started to consume a little more engine oil than I’d like, therefore the order of the day will be more regular stops and checks than have been the norm on this trip so far. We don’t want to fall at the final hurdle so to speak.
Looks cold out there, but no snow as we speak 
Wish me luck, I’ll post again when I arrive in Lublin.
