Local hero

After seeing all the colorful bike jerseys, I regretted not bringing one for safety on the roads. I stopped at a local souvenir stand and found a Croatian soccer jersey figuring the local drivers would cut me some slack. The back had the name Modric who is a superhero here. As soon as I put on the jersey, the crew and locals all shouted Modric and cheered. One crew member told me I might get kisses and hugs as well. Apparently Modric shot the winning goal against Germany one year. I hope there are no German drivers on the road…
