Video's Translate : Good Morning. I don't know how a morning you woke up, but I woke up in such a morning.
I liked Kaputaş beach very much, so I wanted to stay here at least until late afternoon. At about 16:00 in the afternoon, I left Kaputaş and set out for Patara. Patara beach was 23 km away.
After stopping by Kalkan on the way and touring it a little bit, I arrived at Gelemiş village at around 19:00. Patara beach was 1-1.5 km away from Gelemiş village. The village was a small, beautiful village with Seljuk architecture.
After going down to Patara beach and swimming a little, the officials asked the beach to be evacuated. Since the caretta caretta turtles are breeding season, it was forbidden to stay on the beach after 20:00 in the evening. I was planning to spend the night at the beach, it didn't work. I returned to the village.
After eating my meal, I went to the mosque first to go to bed. Since the weather was very hot, I was going to sleep in the open area in the mosque's courtyard. There were generally drinking water dispensers in mosques along the way. I entered the mosque saying maybe there is a drinking water dispenser here. There was water but my eyes got caught in the air conditioner. While we were coming this far, there was air conditioning in the outer sections of one or two mosques, but the remote was not around. It also had a remote. It also had sockets. I plugged in the electronic devices. I cannot describe the happiness of the air conditioner. I was the king tonight. I had a sound sleep under 16 degrees air conditioning until the morning prayer.
The next day I will be out of Antalya borders. I would like to share some technical information for the part of my journey so far.
Between Isparta - Antalya (Konyaaltı): Although the altitude difference is 1035 meters, I gained an altitude of approximately 1680 meters and lost 2715 meters during 133 km. The road was covered with cold asphalt. Even if there were some erosions, the condition of the road was good. The wind was usually blowing from the southwest direction.
Between Antalya (Konyaaltı) and Muğla (Border): I gained an altitude of 5500 meters for 300 km and lost. The road was covered with cold asphalt again. He was generally in good condition. The wind was generally blowing from the west.
To wrap it up: I cycling against the wind for 6 days (actually the whole trip). I covered an average of 72 km per day. The temperature was effective as I cycled in the middle of August (Over 30 degrees). I climbed near 7180 meters and descended close to 8215 meters. I had a shaky journey on flat roads and descents, both because the wheels of my bike were 700 * 35 mm and the road was covered with cold asphalt. The traffic situation was calm except for central locations. Only the coastal road between Finike-Demre and Kaş-Kalkan was narrow. In these narrow sections, there was no security lane to the west side.
