Actually, it was a little bit arduous to choose exactly which situation I could tell in this part of the examination because I have always had this problem with vehicles. Here, I decided to choose the Turkey situation when we had trouble with the bike. It happened on the 11th of January, and it was kind of a surprise for my older brother because the previous day was my birthday. That's why we decided to go abroad, and our option was to visit Istanbul. There, we were fascinated by the view of the city, and we went to another part of the country to another island, which is called Atapikem, but I don't remember the exact name. This island is really popular for the roads and the tops of the mountains, especially for bikes, and that's why we decided to ride a bike there. In the beginning of the story, we checked everything that the bike contained. The security guard checked our chain, wheels, and our seating; everything was okay, nothing was suspicious. But on our way, when we got up the mountain, we noticed that we had trouble with the chain of the bike. It was related to the chain, and that's why it was a little unexpected for us. Thank God my brother was with me. I don't know why it was a problem; maybe the security guard should have paid a little more attention to this. Despite this trouble, we had a good trip on this island, so I don't regret it. Everything was good, fine, so it was unforgettable for me.
