I want to ride my bicycle

[Steve B]

I want to ride my bike.... enough of that!

I fancy going inland rather than along the coast. Can anybody suggest any nice places for me and my camera?

See some of you soon:D

The list is endless!

I'll recommend a few places when I see you.

We are keen cyclists but don't want to flog ourselves to death cycling up mountains in that heat - can you recommend some places inland which don't involve too many hills?

I think you may well have a problem there as Calis & Fethiye are surrounded by mountains and as such getting any distance inland would probably involve many hills.

Steve,

It's a great place to explore, for instance head up Baris Manco heading away from the beach and about half way up take a left and within minutes you are in open country with lots of little trails, local farmers tending crops and animals and not a tourist to be seen, appart from the odd nut riding a bike !

You don't see cars here but if it's local Turkish life you are looking for then it is all around.

Enjoy

Thanks for that Rimms we have just bought bikes and that sounds great for us as well.

Cycling does let you cover more distance than you could by walking and it lets you see areas that you would never have seen if you had gone by car.
A great way to see the area!

Been a keen mountainbiker I have cycled quite a bit around Fethiye and Calis and all I will say to you all is that cycling in the summer heat make sure you have at least 2 - 3lts of fluid per hour even more if you are climbing inland

We stop for regular fluid intakes - husband will never pass by a bar.  You are right though Ron and we always carry water with us, even when on foot and away from town.
