Hi eagean. I’m glad to see a Turkish cyclist here, on this thread.
Thanks for reply. Two days from Gokova to Bodrum is too short time to enjoy that nice road for us wink . But that would be the great result if it was a challenge!
I’m sure you could tell us more about bike touring in Turkey. All information about our route was taken from the Russian Internet only. I knew exactly that the road from Gokova to Bodrum via Karaova exists in reality. I also knew about the way, which goes parallel the road 400 through “saklikent canyon” to Xanthos and about the way from Fethie south through mountains, so-called “Lician way”. Our tourers have cycled there. However, it would be much more interesting for me and not only to know about your best routes in Turkey, as well as to look at your pictures or to read the travelogues.
Turkey is a good choice for unsupported touring for Russians because we have not the visa problem there also. Thanks again for this hospitality. I can’t say that in regard to my country, because I know that the things go not in the same way for Turkish citizens in Russia.
Keep us posted.
Sincerely yours.

Alexey
