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_38 1992_39 1992_41 1992_42 1992_43 1992_44 1992_45 1992_46 1992_47 1992_48 1992_49 1992_51 1992_52 1992_53 1992_54 1992_55 1992_56 1992_57 1992_58 1992_59 1992_62 1992_64 1992_66 1992_67 « ‹ van 3 › » « ‹ van 3 › » Gepubliceerd door Mark Bekijk alle berichten van Mark
