Will you still be in Istinye on Saturday? If at Borusan or Olkan's I can pop down and say hi, I live in Zek, so not far away.

Cool!
I will be at Olkan's at around 15:00 on Saturday. I'll see you there if you can make it.
Cool!
Ok, see you then.

nice pictures
a lake in the background? judging by the fact you are near Bursa, i presume it must be somewhere around Ulubat lake?

not Bursa..
between Simav and Emet, about 10kms from Eynal, it is the place where Emok festival will take place this summer.

Very nice, looks like a great riding day.
Has Emok got any better over the last couple of years, I went in 2006 and 2007 but didn't think it was worth the effort since. If it's improved I might try to make it this year.

I've heard quite a lot about this one. Mainly good reviews.
Me and a fellow tosser from Istanbul want to come for Sat-Sun, if we can arrange the dates.
Not sure about the weather though, i am a complete strager to the area but being high up in the ''yayla'', it can get quite cold after sunset, eh?

last year,it was so hot i got a suntan in 3 days..
the other years, it rained..
so weahter is unpredictable there.. we will update weather forecast a few days before the event.
meet me there.. first drinks are on me
Now why did you go and organise this on the wrong weekend? My mother's coming for a week while this is on and I very much doubt she'd appreciate me leaving her alone for a few days. Next time ask me if I'm busy before going ahead and making arrangements.

No you bloody well won't, you'll buy me one when we meet in the summer.
You didn't survey me, and I count for at least 100 votes. I won't forget this.

Hey byker_tr, this is still on, right?
Me and a fellow tosser will be on the 10:45 Pendik-Yalova ferry on Saturday. Will start packing tonight. Weather forecasts indicate a sunny 31 degrees for Bursa on Saturday, however does it get rather chilly up there in the yayla? I really could do without the bulk of thermal shirts and polar jumpers if there won't be any need.
Don't have a GPS but the maps on the Bursa Enduro's website seem quite straightforward. Bursa is not a very big city after all, i guess anyone will be able to point us towards Orhaneli or Buyukorhan once we get to Bursa-Izmir road, no? Any tips/shortcuts for the road?
Hoping to be in Gorecik by 14:30-15:00 in the afternoon.

yep, we were there too.
nice area, good food and great music too
took loads of piccies.But, why oh why did they put the loos so far away? A strategic mistake! Serious beer-drinking led to spending a considerable part of the night trotting back and forth between the amphi-thethre and the loo.
Oh well, after the third round trip we simply gave up and made good use of the bushes behind the stands.
Beautiful roads by the way, now i know why they call it ''Green'' Bursa!
So where are the pics then?
