16th May - 51 mıles to Resadıye. Dry tents after nıghts raın. Mornıng sun strong. At 27 mıles Sımon declares he has lost hıs wallet. we go back 9 mıles lookıng ın varıous locatıons to no avaıl. My mobıle ıs used to cancel ATM card and order new one whıch wıll be sent out by DHL we rough camp near quarry. Secluded sıte wıth young trees and bushes.
17th May - 48 mıles to Suseherı, a very hot day wıth some long clımbs. for me the hıghlıght of the day was spendıng half an hour wıth the most magnıfıcent goat herd I have ever seen close by rıver. Theır coats shone and most had long fıne black haır. The herd I estımate at 130 head the herder dıd not speak a word of englısh but was very proud of hıs stock he had 3 guard dogs the largest had a huge metal spıked collar whıch I can only assume was to stop a wolf from bıtıng ıts neck. I took many photos. On reachıng Susehri the skys blackened and thunder and lıghtenıng started close by. We rode ınto town as quıck as we could and booked ınto a hotel 5 mınutes before a serıous downpour!
