Turkey was a very diverse country. From the fast flat road on the eastern end of the Black Sea to the steep hills heading inland and long rolling mountains of Central Turkey

A must visit if you go to Turkey. We spent a couple of days staying in a cave hotel and enjoy the natural beauty of Goreme and the surrounding areas

Georgia was yet another highlight in our trip. Vardzia in the South-West of the country is worth visiting.

Tom said goodbye to us in Istanbul and set of with his plan to do a NW route for Europe at break neck speed. Here are some of the pictures he took while going solo for just under a month through Bulgaria, Serbia, Hungary, Austria, Germany, England and finally his home country of Northern Ireland.

One of the strangest countries we visited on the trip but also very scenic and has left us with stories and memories of a lifetime.

Croatia was a little slice of heaven and having spent 15 days traveling from Greece through Bulgaria, Macedonia, Kosovo, Albania and Montenegro. We stayed with two of Thorstens friends in their small villa overlooking the Adriatic about 30km South of the city of Split. Very relaxing.

An unexpected highlight of the trip for Katie, Jared and Thorsten was cycling the balkans. (Greece, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Monetenegro and Kosovo) View some of the sites we saw along the way.

With the Swiss Alps behind us all we needed to do was drop Thorsten in Germany and make a B-line for England. The end was now in sight

After convincing Thorsten to keep riding we left Croatia on a ferry bound for Italy and a train to Switzerland where we proceeded to cycle the 3 Alpine passes of Gottardo, Furka and Grimsel. This was some of the most beautiful and challenging riding so far

The region around Bukhara has been inhabited for at least five millennia and the city itself has existed for half that time.

Samarkand is the second-largest city in Uzbekistan. The city is most noted for its central position on the Silk Road between China and the West, and for being an Islamic center for scholarly study.

By far the most beautiful scenery that we have seen on our adventure across Asia. The Bishkek-Osh road was filled with everything including a lot of cycle tourists

What can only be described as an epic 3 day adventure, cycling the Chungju lakes area turned into a true team challenge. Dirt roads that went on forever and lost team members!

From Bundang to Yangpyeong and over the #37 highway which turned out to be a little bit higher and longer than thought. Seems to always be this way.

Day 1: We woke early in Bundang, eager and ready to hit the road. After packing and chatting, checking the route, updating emails, and changing Facebook profiles, the morning had disappeared Day 2: The weather was cool and a little drier than the previous day, so we where sure we would make better time. But I heard a burst and my tire deflated quickly. The source of the puncture was half a toothpick Day 3: We cycled into the village and found it to be in wonderful condition – obviously constructed to look like a 500 year old Korean village. Day 4: We decided to take the scenic route and headed off through some stunning mountains with equally stunning hills to climb. I should mention, at this point, how courteous the majority of Korean motorists are
