Bicycle Vlog 17: ‘When Autumn Leaves’ - Somewhere in a farm field an early sun filled morning wakes us up and we make a fresh brew to enjoy. Cycling off the beaten path along the Almus dam lake we get great views on the beautiful surroundings. We head up the river system feeding this lake and stop to see some women making bulgur. In a small village we fill up our water bottles and get asked by many to come over and stay. Because the scenery is stunning we politely reject and find an amazing spot to camp. When asleep we suddenly get woken by a tractor and excited men start to make noise. They want to throw a party next to our tent, complete with a fire, bread and raki! The people in this part of Turkey are incredibly hospitable and we get a whole sack of apples, home made bread and of course offerings of chai. The valleys twist and turn, narrow and widen. Autumn is getting to it’s end and the nights are getting progressively colder. Snow on the mountains becomes more frequent and winter is just around the corner…

To see, feel, smell, hear and taste everything the road has to offer will be so much different than watching a documentary or reading a book about it. Sometimes it will be difficult and most of the time fantastic. We hope you will find some inspiration in our video's and maybe fuel your dreams as so many other have done for us.
