Day 1
I marked the route's start at the intersection of Akhunbaeva and April 7 streets in Bishkek, where there is a Globus grocery store. I suggest stocking up on water and bringing your preferred food for lunch and dinner. This is a two-day trip, so feel free to bring some yummy food for camping. If you continue along the canal without turning off to the nearby villages, you won't come across any stores. Make sure you have enough water to cover the approximately 54 km.
A lunch stop can be made at the garden plantation of 'Zherdev Sad' located at 38 km point, 42.755643, 75.003164 (https://maps.app.goo.gl/GkCGxrBuammJLbm57). This location offers comfortable seating arrangements under the shade of trees.
Additionally, there is a small poplar garden located one kilometer away from the crossroads of Aliaskar Toktonaliev Gate, where water from the canal is distributed to the fields. Here, amidst the rustling leaves and the sound of flowing water, you can take a lunch break. The location is 38 km away and can be found at 42.755254, 75.017071
At the 55th kilometer you need to turn off the canal onto an asphalt road which, passing through the Don-Aryk village, will lead you to the hills that contain the remains of the walls of the once large medieval city of Balasagyn. From this place you will clearly see the rising remains of the minaret Burana tower behind the wall. There is a historical and cultural complex on the territory.
Next, continue riding along the asphalt road through the villages of Burana, Kalygul, and Zhany-Zhol. At approximately the seventieth kilometer, you will reach the suburbs of the city of Tokmok. From there, turn left and continue to the village of Ak-Beshchim. In historiography, the archaeological site on the supposed location of the city of Suyab is designated as the Akbeshim settlement, which the Turkics called Ordu or Orducent. In the western corner of the city, the ruins of a citadel can be found. Ceramic fragments are scattered throughout the settlement and beyond its walls. About two hundred meters east of the citadel, on the hills where the fortress walls once stood, you can pitch tents for an overnight stay.
Each small village along the route has small shops for resupply or short stops for refreshments.
So, on the first day we covered 76.5 km, we visited two of the three planned settlements.

Day 2
To the west of Akbeshim Village, follow the Eastern Chui Canal until the asphalt road M-003, which connects the villages of Nurmambet and Krasnaya Rechka. The dirt road along the canal was occasionally sandy and clayey, which may slightly slow down your ride. At the 95th kilometer of the route (20 km from the Akbeshim citadel), turn north onto the asphalt road M-003 towards Krasnaya Rechka. This is a big village with numerous shops. Remember to bring a snack for lunch and on your way back to Bishkek. After 2.5 kilometers from Krasnaya Rechka, you will find the ruins of the Nevaket, a medieval Silk Road city that thrived between the 6th and 13th centuries CE. The remains of the citadel are massive and tower above the walls. This location provides breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside and mountains, making it a must-see destination. The archaeological site covers a vast area where extensive research has been conducted and continues to be carried out.
I built the route to Bishkek from Nevaket along the ЭM-11 highway (A365). I find the old ЭM-20 highway less preferable due to the lack of cycling infrastructure in many villages and towns along the way and poor roadside conditions with numerous obstacles. I prefer to travel along the highway and, therefore, chose the ЭM-11 for my return trip. At kilometer 146 of the ride, turn left onto the country road towards Sadovoe village. Then, pass through Alamedin village to reach the city of Bishkek, avoiding the busy Kurmanjan Datka main street.
