About Me

I am a cyclist from Azerbaijan. I have cycling experience for thousands of kilometers. Bicycle is a important part of my life. It is not only my hobby but also mean of transport for me. Till 8 years before I was riding a mtb,but starting from 2016 I am riding my road bike. Currently I am riding a bit vintage one,1992th year Giant Peleton. I travelled a lot with this one. All parts of Hungary,North part of Croatia was the destinations where I frequently travelled. Currently studying in Portugal,doing my PhD as a Structural Engineer student. I have cycled ,such as Vienna-Budapest,a part of Danube trail-eurovelo 6,from Pecs(Hungary) till the Julian Alps in Slovenia,Italy and many other cycling routes like in Caucasian Mountains,in Azerbaijan can be a good example for a far distance routes. I also worked as a bike messenger,in Hungary and Azerbaijan. Basically,if there is anything about bicycle I am in :)
I usually cycle minimum 100 kilometres per a day in my bike-packing trips.About maximum,I discuss it with my fellow lungs,usually :D
I am not a smoker and drug user. I am talkative. I have always lots of stories from my trips and enjoy to have a talk for a couple of hours and listen to the others :)

P.S For hosting,since I am at my place and not travelling, so you are always welcomed! Last minute requests are welcomed, as well :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My solo travels,especially cycling in extreme weather conditions for a 300-400 kilometers continiously for a couple of days.One time I have climbed to Mount Olympus and almost without food,drink and without a tent I survived for a day.Thanks to the nature that,at the elevation of 2100 meters and above was covered with snow that I can melt in and drink :D
