In this Podcast Hannah Dyson interviews Ozgur Korkmaz on his epic cycle journey
Ozgur Korkmaz put the breaks on his old way of life by buying a bike and embarking on an epic journey from London to Istanbul in 2018. Cycling through 11 countries, covering a cool 2115 miles overall, averaging 45-50 miles per day with one day off per week, mental and physical strength was just one of the requirements.
We explore why Ozgur chose to cycle to Istanbul, his experiences cycling through 11 countries and what those countries taught him. We will discuss what Ozgur’s concerns were before the journey, what went through his mind during the highs and lows and how this has changed his life for the better.
Ozgur is a huge advocate for the benefit of cycling and how it can improve our mental and physical health. He is also a driving instructor so will give us this unique insight on both road and cycle safety and how we incorporate cycling into our lives and still use the car.
We explore why it is so difficult to get people to give up their car and the idea driving makes people feel good.
