From snow-covered Banská Bystrica, our two brave pandas set off on another adventure this weekend. This time, their destination is the dark continent – together with Marek Slobodník, they are embarking on an expedition to Africa on five Pionýr motorcycles.
On Saturday, January 14th, we waved goodbye to them at the Banská Bystrica square and wished them many happy kilometers. And how did it all go? See for yourself...
Before the hot deserts and jungles of Africa, the pandas faced their first stress test – piles of snow and freezing temperatures. It looked more like the expedition was heading to a completely different continent.
Even so, many people came to say goodbye to the adventurers.
What can we say, it was a grand celebration. Before the journey, the pandas had to undergo their first newspaper interview.
A few last group photos as a keepsake for the family album...
The pandas are beautiful, so it's no wonder everyone wanted to take one last picture with them before the trip.
Now it's time to hop on the machines and get going. One last group photo – a lot of people really showed up...
All that remains is to wave goodbye and wish them thousands of trouble-free kilometers. Africa, get ready, the pandas are on their way!
We urged the pandas to keep us updated regularly. You can follow reports of their adventures on our Facebook and here on the blog.
