I kind of accidentally found CGOAB a while back, and really love it. Sometimes I search specific locations or routes, sometimes I just randomly pick journals to read during a lunch break or something (kind of my escape from reality). In the past I bought several books through Amazon about bike travels, most are far better written than the journals on CGOAB but the key word is that I "bought" them instead of free journals. I love that it loads quickly, easy to search, no pop-ups, and a huge content. I do occasionally read other blogs but once I read them they are done, no need to return usually. Overall it's a great resource.

Elbonia? I think I watched a documentary about the country on Comedy Channel maybe?
