Exercising Bicycle Racing Team

by nonur

Yesterday, while I was driving to a distant place to take some frost photographs in the cold misty atmosphere, I came across with these members of the Bicycle Racing Team of Konya exercising on the motorway. I drove ahead of them three times, parked the car and I could get only three decent shots, this is one of them. Konya team is known to be the best in the country and it is the only continental team. The sugar factory in town is sponsoring them, and "Torku" is their brand name.

Makes a change from seeing the Sky team on the road. Looks like they are cycling on the Turkish equivalent of the M62 Trans Pennine road!

What a fine shot Nezih, well taken, good to see the lads out training even though it looks bitterly cold .
