Cycling around the world concerning about ecological issues

Reaching Tunceli at last


The trip from Hasankeyf to Munzur was not so easy as I thought. It took me quite a while, I was facing quite a few problems that ended up coincidently in interesting and funny situations. On such a travel all the programm can be changed in a minute, itcan happen always in life but in living the direct output of the movement made in one moment you feel it indenpendently and regardless of further consequences.

So many things including a broken rim ended in a three days stay in Dyarbakir, where I got to know very good people and I had the house staying european feeling again for one day where I also had some tea I from home which made the feeling complete. I first realized that I am far away and thoughtfully not be coming back soon..

There were also these days again with very intense dreaming, like real and I am thinking of writing a script for a movie, maybe. Extraordinary story, just one dream could say so much.
This trip to Diyarbakir was alright, 142km in one day, leaving midday. Then something started and fate told me not to hurry for future time schedules. Fırst rim is gone and two times broke the chain, of course in relation with flat tire. One day it was at a boggler in this city who was supposed to fix some parts, probably working the first time with hydraulic brakes and putting a 32 hole center to 36 hole rim, there was no other. Anyway we had some nice pets ın this garage. Afterwards I fixed the things that should be fixed in one more day. But it was worth it staying at the Professors house.
For further days I was confronted with real nice nature again and just local Jandarma (Military that is all over Turkey) was playıng some funny games with me and
asking me hundreds of questions trying to tell me what to do and what not, but also giving me tea and sometimes also food.

I found some good way for campıng sites, since there are no. For example I stayed in University area, nobody disturbed me and everything is abound.

Now I am in Tunceli and Munzur National Park sorrounded with at least 3000m mountains, all green at the rivers and white on top, I will see some more dams 2 already built and 6 more in planning and construction.
