Last post on this blog was more than a year ago and was about a MTB ride around the Marathon lake in the north part of Athens . Since then I’ve done the circle 3 or 4 times along with friends or in group rides with the cyclist-friends.gr forum.

After the fires of last week the ride will not be the same , the little church is burned and the fire only stopped when it reached the water.

And that’s not the end as the fire burned even more up to north suburbs destroying homes , cars , etc
