Cycling tours 1992: The Kadesh Trail. The Treaty of Kadesh was written in the 13th century AD between farao Ramses II from Egypt and king Hattusilis from the Hittites. The treaty was found on clay tablets in the ancient capital of the Hittites, Hattusas in central Turkey. The same treaty was also written in hieroglyfs at the wall of the Great Temple of Karnak. This oldest peace treaty inspired me to make a bike journey through one of the most dangerous places of the world, but also with the most hospital and friendly people of the world: Turkey, Syria, Jordan, the Sinai desert and Egypt. After this 3000 km journey I took a boot from Alexandria to Venice and cycled back home via Italy, Austria, Switserland, France and Luxembourg. I cycled nearly 5000 km in 2 months, but I lost weight less than one kg! 1992_01 1992_02 1992_03 1992_04 1992_05 1992_06 1992_07 1992_19 1992_21 1992_22 1992_23 1992_24 1992_25 1992_26 1992_27 1992_28 1992_29 1992_31 1992_32 1992_33 1992_34 1992_35 1992_36 1992_37 « ‹ van 3 › » « ‹ van 3 › » Gepubliceerd door Mark Bekijk alle berichten van Mark
