[Par slepni] Pieklušana slepnim neprasa nekadu rakšanu, ciršanu vai vel kaut ko, kas varetu kaitet dabai un/vai arhitekturai. Instrukciju ka pieklut slepnim jus varat izlasit hinta. Parskati pievienotos waypointus, lai zinatu, kur uzpildit pudeli, ja nu gadijuma tev beidzas udens un pie slepna ta ari neesi ticis. Ja logbooks ir pilns, nofotografejiet konteineri un sutat bildi MAN, nevis pievienojat pie sava loga. Par cik viesu gramata ir loti maza datumu nerakstam. (iznemot FTF)

[Vesture] Bikera baznica
Bikera baznica, tiek deveta ari par Bikernieku Katrinas baznicu celta jau 1694.gada. 1701. gada baznica tikusi izlaupita, bet 1709.gada atkal savesta pilniga kartiba, bet pec neilga laika sagrauta, baznica pilniba atjaunota tikai 1766. gada. Šo baznicu deve par ‘’Bikera’’ baznica del kadas legendas. Kadu dienu keizariene izgajusi pastaigaties arpus galma, pa celam pamatigi izslapusi. Vieta, kur tagad stav ši baznica, vinu esot pacienajis kads zemnieks dodot padzerties udeni no sava necila bikera. Del ši notikuma keizariene likusi uzcelt šeit baznicu un par cik keizariene zemnieka vardu ta ari nezinaja, ta lika iesvetit to par “Bikera” baznicu.

[History] Bikera (goblet) church
Bikera evangelic lutheran church also known as Bikernieku Katrinas church was built in 1694. Legend tells that this church was built in honor of peasant, who gave goblet with water to the empress, while she had gone out for a stroll. In 1701 the church was plundered by vandals. Only in 1709 fold managed to reconstruct the church. But short time after the reconstruction, in the same year church got destroyed, and was reconstructed once again in 1766. Please, don't write the date, the logbook is too small.
