Beyond the Known

What does adventure mean? For Sami, a multisport athlete and filmmaker, it’s movement and shared experience.
In collaboration with Assos and Mammut, Sami leads a cycling expedition across Turkey with four women. Strangers from different backgrounds, united by their love for riding. Neza from Rwanda dreams of becoming a coach. Melina juggles a full-time role at Mammut with a passion for gravel and road cycling. Denisa is quiet yet fearless, most at home in nature. Lena is a climber and photographer who captures the soul of the wild.
Together they ride through raw landscapes and remote villages, facing obstacles, falls, and unexpected moments that turn strangers into a team.
