Over the last several days we biked from Iran into Turkey. We are now just finishing our rest day in the city of Kars. The riding has been pretty tough, with lots of hills. But the weather has been nice – not the brutal heat that we have had to deal with for the last long while. The scenery is pretty amazing – including views of Mt Ararat, the claimed final resting place of Noah’s Ark.

Only twelve days of riding to go!
