Getting out of Istanbul was as bad as getting in. The D100 is my least favourite road in the world (so far)
First ride of the new setup, overall it's great but the wider bars make close overtakes even scarier

Had a dual carriage way all to myself, accidentally took part in a demonstration about the Tempi train crash (the deadliest rail disaster in Greek history), and witnessed the continuing struggles of the Greek economy because even the clothing models cant afford clothes

Eventually I will learn that going around the mountain is quicker than going over it. Had to hike through snow for 45mins for this one. Who knew Greece had snow 🤷
If you want to follow my trip you'll find me on Strava. I know it's just another profit driven company, but at least it's not the one that back stabbed all my friends
