Here at Restrap, we don’t just make bikepacking bags and cycling accessories, but we live and breathe bikepacking. Every year the Restrap team plans a big tour that allows us to shakedown our bags and look for ways in which we can improve them.

This tour would take us along the Aegean coastline from Dalaman in the south, through the mountain ranges surrounding Izmir and finishing at the historic city of Istanbul.

Full route for this tour can be found here:

We rode through small rural villages, olive groves, cotton fields and over mountains on gravel roads and farm tracks, while cycling past ancient ruins and historic sites that revealed Turkey's rich and diverse history. With this tour promising to be dry and dusty with unpaved roads and tracks, we geared our bikes towards being able to handle the rough stuff.

The film is the latest in our 'Thank You' series documenting Restrap's tours around the world where we put ourselves and our kit to the test, experiencing the joys of bikepacking and cycle touring while hunting for the best cycling roads across the world.
