The Romans left this behind in Turkey S8, EP07
And then you're gonna.. other way around and then you're going to add oil, add oil Until at some point you've added so much oil that it's going to leak out from every gasket! Karacaören Baraji, Turkey Season 8 - Eps. 7 Good morning Internet, it is 7:30 in the morning and welcome back to the channel Welcome to gorgeous, gorgeous Turkey here. I am ready to go Let me first show you on the map actually, where I'm going today before I forget Quick look. I am now somewhere over here and my plan for today is to ride to Konya Right over here. So I am crossing all of these mountains and then go down here past this lake And then on to Konya So one more look at this gorgeous, gorgeous view and then let's go I put on my jacket today because it's actually a little chilly now in the morning But hopefully as I start riding it will not be necessary anymore, and hopefully it's going to be another warm day Uh with lots of mountains so let's go Okay Choke...
All right 336 kilometers to go I am really excited about today Because there are some really cool things to see along the way. Some very interesting stuff that I'm looking forward to and I think the scenery should also be really beautiful so.. I'm really stoked about today, I think it's going to be a good day! Okay last views on the lake. So pretty
And it looks like it's going to be another gorgeous day so I really wonder if that's now how it's like, that like in the north of Turkey it's getting more rainy And more towards winter and uh, that in the south of Turkey we're pretending like it's still summer Big dog, big dog Ah oh! I just passed a place which looks like they have food, because I didn't have breakfast today Breakfast starts at 10:00 I'm like, by 10 I want to be far away from here already It's too late so I left without breakfast but then.. .. I saw a fire here, looks like they're making some food Hey there Wow. Nice Oh, there's like cheese inside Very nice Okay, there we go That was very nice Very good breakfast Now I am energized to hit the road Let's do this Look it's still too early for the sun to get over the mountains here Very pretty I love those fake police cars. They get me every time! So I just passed my turn off to go into the mountains But before I do, I do have to fill up My plan was to ride the bike empty, to really see my range But I calculated that it's not gonna.. oh, is this open? Um, that's not going to be possible today because then I'm going to be somewhere in the middle of the mountains stuck without fuel, even with the extra fuel bag So today is not the day to test the full range, I just need to fill up here Um Petrol Uh, full please, yeah So 16 liters and I've done 366 kilometers So my range is really good Back to the turnoff But yeah, I'm really happy with the range that I got on the tank Like, it's really good, the fuel efficiency is pretty good And then well, with the 6 liters extra, I have well.. huge range And uh, I'm going to need it, at some point Not yet But uh, at some point in this journey, I am going to need this big range So here's the turn off Ah, look at this, yeah Oh, the trees they all smell so strong It's pine but I think there's also some shrubs that I smell That I don't really know what they are It's just the air is so clean here So it looks like I'm now headed towards the gorge Kind of all the way down, I think And see there's already water here on the left. And I think that will drain into a river that is running this direction
Let me stop here to.. .. Take my jacket off again And do something else too Because I promised Moritz I promised Moritz that I will look after Frankie really well And that also means checking on the oil And well, the engine is new so I shouldn't be burning off any oil at this stage But it's just good to get into a habit of checking it, you know You need to know if at some point, I start to consume a little oil I brought uh.. one liter of extra engine oil with me So I can fill it up along the way, if necessary And again it shouldn't be necessary yet, but I agree it should just become part of my normal routine So the important thing about checking the oil is that it needs to be hot If you do this first thing in the morning, it's going to look like you don't have any oil inside And then.. where's my tools? And then you're gonna.. other way round
And then you're going to add oil, add oil until at some point you've added so much oil, that it's going to leak out from every gasket! So it's just really important to check it when it's hot So all I have to do is just release this strap Unscrew one screw And now I can take this side panel off Yeah there's plenty oil. You can see Now I just put the panel back Moritz gave me these gloves. So nice of him And yeah, just stuff them behind here It's also my rain jacket is also here It's quite a good little storage space Let's continue the ride. Oh, when I look at this, I'm just.. makes me happy Makes me so happy Okay Wow! Check this out This this is a.. a Roman bridge. Just amazing how they built it And it's still standing and then look at the color of the water. Really pretty
But if you think that this is cool.Wait for the next place Or at least I have high hopes that, that's going to be even more impressive Let's climb some more Wow, what a ride! Oh I can already see it, wow Oh, this is so cool Ah, this is incredible Hi! Hm? Ah theatre Yeah. Motor What your name?

Still standing for the most part. Unbelieveable right? The setting is just amazing Look behind me at those mountains there amazing right? What a place right? There is so much history here And I tried to read up about this place but then somewhere I read that the Spartans built this or the Romans or some other people there's.. there's been a lot of history here so
I could probably talk for 30 minutes or 40 minutes trying to explain all the history of this area But for now I think I'm just going to.. take this amazing view And sitting on this very very old top row of the amphi amphi I cannot say this amphithat amphitheatre Amazing Gözleme Gözleme - Gözleme Yeah Gözleme - Gözleme - Gözleme Okay Perfect Okay I got myself some lunch for along the way That'll be nice, so I can stop somewhere and eat this Okay, that was the awesome Selge theatre Amphitheatre Let's continue the ride I'm really happy with the suspension by the way This was a lot of work, I think Yeah, for the front suspension Moritz tried like seven different springs To find the one that was the best for my weight and the bike's weight, and the type of riding that I'm doing And of course the rear suspension also got a big upgrade or service And yeah, I'm really happy with it It's handling this terrain super easily Oh, it's getting so cold now There's a really cold wind up here Yeah, I'm going to put back my jacket What a stunning place right? I don't know how many times I've said that today I am in my element.. really All right final stretch There we go To the top of the mountain Frankie I am here. I am on the top of the pass
Let's finally have my lunch as well Getting quite hungry now. It's like 2:30 or something What a nice spot to have my lunch right? Oh, so awesome here I just realized it's already 3:00 Oops and how far do I have to go? 145 kilometers, that's not so bad actually At some point I'll hit the paved road Oh wow I had no idea that this Konya is so huge That is an enormous city Look, it's just as far as the eye can reach just city Oops someone hit this car in the back Oh well, who needs a.. who needs two lights at the back *honk* *honk* * honk* [Dutch] It's still red isn't is * honk* [Dutch] What's your problem? [Dutch] It's red... I have to readjust to ride in such a busy city After spending the entire day in the mountains on my own It's kind of a.. shock Um.. says no
For some reason in Turkey my navigation doesn't understand which are one-way lanes One-way streets, it keeps on sending me the wrong way into these streets But this should work This should work Go right here No safe place for Frankie down there so.. gonna try another place I met these two very nice people That told me that there's a little place here Where Frankie can sit behind the gate And I'm like yes! Here I think Yeah Peace be upon you Um.. guest house? Hello Hello - I'd like to stay in the guest house Okay, how many people? Only you - Only me, yes And I made it to a room, this room is perfect It's nice and cozy, I even have two beds But at least Frankie is safe inside, so that's the most important thing now I don't have to worry about that So yeah, what a day, what a day I loved it, it was just an awesome day. Beautiful ride Beautiful scenery. My heart's happy
