Slowest ride: 25 km in about 7 hours on a small, untrafficked (we didnt see a single other human being), Georgian mountain road although we did come across a abondoned Soviet war-poison factory with all the poison having been left to decompose in a very un-organic way.
Longest waiting time: 24 hours of actively hitchhiking (time spent eating tapas and sleeping 2 nights are not counted ^^). On a petrol station north of Malaga.
Funniest ride: Crazy georgian truckdriver on another small georgian mountain road going to Mestia in the middle of the night.
