We took smaller roads between Edirne and Kirklareli, leaving Edirne in northeasterly dirction on the Lalapasa road and turning right after crossing the motorway in the direction of Suloglu. Then via Dolhan and Kayali. This is very beautiful cycling through a rural area, almost no traffic. You have to ask for directions in almost all villages, because there are many more roads.<br />We cycled in and out of Kirlklareli on a Sunday. Very quiet on the big highway out of town. The next days to Vize and Saray we had more traffic, but no dangerous situations. After Saray it is more quiet again. Still roadworks after Subasi, but only a few very short stretches. Mostly you cycle on the huge shoulder on the 6 lane highway. Truck traffic becomes very heavy closer to Kemerburgaz. The last 10km where very unpleasant, but not dangerous. The forest road from Kemerburgaz is beautiful and offers the last wildcamping opportuneties. From Sariyer to Istanbul center we cycled mostly on the pedestrian walking path right next to the water. During the day the road was quite busy, but not scary.<br />We did all of this with our 2 year old son in a trailer and wild camped all the way.<br />I am not sure if it is still allowed to cycle on the new free way when it is finished. I think the alternative will be small roads even more north. All in all we enjoyed this ride. It was defenitely much better than 8 years ago when I took the D100!Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04998444402107422045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000046275662845633.post-46685364091718761472013-09-17T02:19:14.408-07:002013-09-17T02:19:14.408-07:00The easiest way to exercise is only with Cycling. ...The easiest way to exercise is only with Cycling.

I too plan to go by bicycle from Iran to UAE and would like to be sure about this.<br /><br />I am definitely hoping not to spend so much money, try to get as son as possible out of Dubai and in the 'country side' for camping. Hope that's possible though ; )<br /><br />Thanks for this detailed post, Cindy<br />http://cyclingcindy.wordpress.com/Cinderella Servranckxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17930070774874467982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000046275662845633.post-15720169502047201642013-06-17T08:12:05.763-07:002013-06-17T08:12:05.763-07:00Hey Guy & Freddie,

After Subasi the roadworks are still in progress for the first ~10km. After that, the road is brandnew (2-3 lanes and a wide shoulder), with perfect tarmac and almost no traffic until Kemerburgaz. <br />Although a bit hilly (approx. 1000 meters more to cover than along D-100) we would definitely recommend approaching Istanbul that way! <br />Thank you for this post and the gpx file!<br />Miguel & Noranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000046275662845633.post-71999935929745276282013-06-07T12:25:18.905-07:002013-06-07T12:25:18.905-07:00This is my lovely old hometown.

We followed the D010 and D020 road as far as we could tell. We had an inadequate map and I can't remember too many road signs. Anyway we left Sultanahmet about 7am and had a trouble free ride out towards Sarayer. I don't think we quite made it to Sarayer, instead we turned inland at a bay south of there. I remember there being a taxi rank on the road in the bay. We climbed the hill on Tarabya Bayin Cad and then into Buyukdere Bahcekoy Yolu and onto Bahcekoy. From there we took a left turn onto a lovely quiet road Kemerbergaz Bahcekoy Yolu. We camped at the end of our first day in a picnic area alongside a restaurant/bar which was set back slightly from the road. There was a primitive toilet and a spring and lots of tables amidst the trees. It was exactly 40kms from our start point in Istanbul. The next morning we rode onto Kemerbergaz and then onto Subasi where we stayed in the Hotel Kleopatra. This stretch was mostly on the new road which was fairly quiet though a little exposed and we were battered a bit by the wind. I had felt anxious about cycling out of Istanbul but it turned out to be very easy.Jim.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000046275662845633.post-87425217508372975962012-07-07T18:06:51.054-07:002012-07-07T18:06:51.054-07:00sorry when I said kind of like America I meant how...sorry when I said kind of like America I meant how there is diversity but one offical language, which is EnglishAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6000046275662845633.post-70082338034078338192012-07-07T17:58:07.175-07:002012-07-07T17:58:07.175-07:00Hi,

Persians were an empire made out of 100 different tribes , they were united. That's why they were strong. Today we are all IRANIANS and a mixture of AZERI,Kurdi,Louri,GILANI,ARAB,Balouchi,Indians,African,etc...We've been mixing for 1000 of years together. You can never find a pure race of anything in IRAN. Each area in Iran has it's own language but the offical language is FARSI. Everyone is free to speak whatever language they want but school is Farsi. Kind of like America. We like to called IRANIANS. I know some Iranians find being called Persian appealing b/c it sounds nice and mysterious. But can you go to Greece and call someone a Spartan? No, they are all Greek.Thank you for listening I didn't mean to confuse you but just wanted to point that out. BTW I'm Azeri,Gilani,Semnani,and tehrani...and who knows what else!
