Since last few years as the cyclist competition Cup Murgash is conducted, there were all possible conditions for riding and this year was the turn for rain and mud, accompanied by fog and strong wind in the high areas. Mount Murgash is a main goal to conquer from both hobby participants and elite competitors. It is such a place that even in the most beautiful and sunny summer, the hours without wind are very rare. So now, at an altitude of 1000 meters to whatever I reached, the temperatures and rain were tolerable, but at the top of the mountain the situation was tottally different – inhospitable and almost chilling, especially after one has climbed 1-2 hours on steep hils and drenched in sweat.
