Travel / Crossing to Russia: Planning a Motorcycle Trip from Poland to Kalinigrad [26]

The bad news is.....i could have put you up for free at my farm in Poland if you were doing the trip this year...

The good news is... that by the time you do the trip i will be living in Russia with my Russian girlfriend , actually she will be my wife by then....

We are planning on buying a country house somewhere between Moscow and St petersburg , probably too far for you to travel to , but maybe we can help if you have any problems in Russia....My girlfriend speaks English very well , and not suprisingly her Russian is excellent...

I will send you a private message with my email address if you need any info...

Travel / Crossing to Russia: Planning a Motorcycle Trip from Poland to Kalinigrad [26]

Don,t forget also that Kaliningrad used to be a huge military area , only Russians were allowed there during this time...

Now its no problem to visit , but there are still some areas where its restricted , and such things as taking photos..of anything , can get you in trouble...

I am puzzled why you are only going for one day though...is it just to exchange some secret microfilm....?

Travel / Crossing to Russia: Planning a Motorcycle Trip from Poland to Kalinigrad [26]

Usually you can haggle on that...When i was trying to leave Russia i did not have some document i should have had...cost me a few packs of UK Marlboro . some English money , the guy was a coin collector....! .Ha..they all are...!

In Russia you can usually negotiate your way out of most situations...unless you do something very naughty...

Travel / Crossing to Russia: Planning a Motorcycle Trip from Poland to Kalinigrad [26]

I have crossed quite a few times into Russia , but not by motorcycle , and not into Kaliningrad...

The only place i crossed the border on the Harley was from Poland into Ukraine...

Check out the website Convex mentioned..its really good...

You will need a visa for Russia , probably insurance at the border , and its usefull to have a contact in case of problems...somebody who can speak Russian...

Where are you setting off from...which part of Poland you passing through , and what time of year are you going...maybe i can help you...?

Life / Poland's population predictions [59]

[quote=milky]In the last 10 years alone Poland has a million less children.

Is that really true....?

Or is it just that all the young Poles went to the UK and had their kids....?

You will bluff your way through it....

Polish people are generally quite helpfull when they realise you are a dumb Angol with no clue... i could not have survived here without the help of Polish friends...

If the Poles had called him Paddington , or Pooh , there would have been no problem...

News / Eighteen people die in road accident in Poland [10]

We have fifty years to make up for,

Ha..most of the things Poland is behind in....are the things you really don,t want to catch up on...

Yes , there are some things Poland needs to improve...but please don,t copy everything from the west... I moved to Poland , because there are a whole lot of things here that are better than the west...Let Poland remain Poland..just sort it out a bit...

News / Eighteen people die in road accident in Poland [10]

It seems this was just a normal van , no seats in the rear , no seat belts..nothing.. It overtook a truck , and hit another truck head on , the people in the van had no chance to survive... A big pile of body bags next to a totally destroyed van...

In Ukraine 42 people died , and a few others seriously injured when some clown driving a bus decided to ignore the red flashing lights at an unguarded rail crossing and got hit by a train...

Both these accidents caused by people who could not wait just a little longer to do something in a safe way...trying to avoid wasting a little time , and they have wasted so many lives...So many families will be devastated by these deaths...

What the hell is wrong with people in Poland...? is it because they are such strong believers in God that they believe they can drive like a twot and God will protect them...?? Polish people are not stupid , so why do they drive like idiots on the road...?

Some will say its the Polish roads that are dangerous , but no road is dangerous , unless you drive on it at a speed that is too high for the road conditions , but it seems that Polish drivers consider it a bit unmanly to obey any sign asking you to slow down...

Where i live , in the countryside , i have to say i am quite impressed that everyone seems to drive quite responsibly , but you can,t argue with the figures , Poland has one of the highest fatal accident rates in the EU.. In the five years i have lived in Poland , i have lost more friends in road accidents , than in the fifty years in the UK..

Slow down you muppets , don,t drink and drive...better to get there late , than not at all... I don,t want to lose any more Polish friends , and i have a lady waiting in Russia for me..she would be terribly upset if somebody squashed me and my Harley...DRIVE CAREFULLY...!

Life / Winter 2010/2011 in Poland, is it going to be bad? [114]

Well , i am hoping , fingers crossed ,
that there will not be so many frosts ,
last year i almost froze to death ,
will this year be my final breath..

Far away in a distant land ,
a Russian beauty waits my hand ,
I promised her i would not die ,
so better get some wood stacked high..

When Polands spring comes around ,
I,ll be on the road , Moscow bound ,
another country , another life ,
warm and cosy , with a Russian wife...

thats if i don,t freeze my bits off in an arctic winter....!!
