HI Asia riders to meet in Pakistan
 
I´ve seen in some post, riders going through Pakistan asking to meet riders or info about how is the situation.
Seeing we are a few going the same period of time, here you have some theads:

http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...-company-57683

... there is more. We could try and see if its possible to meet somewhere and have a little HU met, eventualy even crossing Pakistan on group.

I am planing to get there around end of September, begining of October.
Could flex my dates a bit.

Pakistani biking enthusiasts would be delighted to arrange an HU meet in Lahore or Islamabad.
Good idea :)

piralo 31 Jul 2011 16:41

that sounds good. is a great idea to make a HU Meeting.

i think we are on the same time in pakistan. because of my visa i can not enter pakistan befor 01.10. - i will be in iran for 4 weeks. and than pakistan- lets see how long.

so - lets make a meeting with the bike club there :)

Omie 31 Jul 2011 17:01

October and Novembers have the best weather in Pakistan although high mountains start getting cold.
Ideal time for biking and GTGs.

Grant Johnson 1 Aug 2011 00:25

go for it guys - anything we can do to help, just ask! All you need to do is set a date and place, and people will find their way there.

Mehmet Zeki Avar 1 Aug 2011 06:24

So many bikers in the area,some of them were in İstanbul a while ago.. I am still in touch with them and sent messages all to check this thread.
Our members are very happy and respectful for the hospitality and friendship they have lived in Lahore.
Cahit is in İran by BMW.plated TR-35 and will also be in the area until october..After mid sept. some more friends will be in Lahore and some different passes to be the first Turkish bikers there.
I also take this as a chance to thank again to all kardesh bikers in Pakistan aspecially in Lahore and Islamabad.
Sugar,milk,flavour ready,the only need is a light to cook the halva.(TR.saying)
I think will be better after Ramazan as I believe everybody will be pleased to respect Islamic Ramazan traditions.
Lets keep this thread alive.

Best wishes and hayırlı ramazanlar.

Omie 1 Aug 2011 08:43

I would let the guests from abroad to finalise the dates for the HU meeting in Lahore. I will be available October/November and would be needing a weeks notice.
@Zaki, Would be great to have Turkish friends in Lahore. Hope this time we will meet too.

tonired 3 Aug 2011 00:07

Wow! its seems it could work out :taz:

I got a pm from other rider:

- Quote
Hi
I will arrive to Iran/Pakistan border in mid of October.
I could flex my dates about one week.
- Unquote

So seeing Piralo could not cross the border before 1st Oct:

I would say meeting in Bam (I heard is where the police scort starts:confused1:) arround the first Oct if we wanna cross together, or around the 7th in Lahore or Islamabad??

What do you think?

Omie 3 Aug 2011 05:24

Proposed Asian Meet
 
So may I suggest 8-9th October 2011 which is Saturday and Sunday, as the most suitable time for the proposed HU Asian meet in Lahore?

zoeed 3 Aug 2011 11:56

MBC is willing to participate

Please let me know who so ever needs accommodation. Me and MBC members will be happy to arrange for lodging at our respective houses free of charge, additionally our free lodging facility for overland travelers will be ready by October also.

My club friend Cahit will be there sure...Now in İran riding south and poor internet connection until he enters Pakistan...Certainly he will be there too with some other road friends and with some of our friends in Deremurat Turkish Camp.

Come on people lets get to Lahore :funmeteryes:

I´ll get off the 6 or 7th September from Rome, I´m Spanish but I live here now, my girlfriend is Italian so i got no choice:blushing: she´ll be coming too.

We cross from Ancona to Greece, Istambul......Lahore....Kathmandu.

Ouch!!doh
I just got my visa from the Pakistan embasy, it says:
good for travel till 10-10-11
so yeah i will be there, but would leave the next day.

Unless on the entrance the police tell me it's ok to leave a bit latter, not sure if the "good for travel" date its for entrance or exit limit.
Anyway i am planning to get there around the first October, and meet you the 8th anywhere.:mchappy:

Hey Joe! I might be traveling the same route to Austriala as you do. Would be fun to meet up somewhere on the road. :)

BigTomsRide 21 Aug 2011 22:24

Hi Omar and my friends at the Pakistan Biker Club!
I'll be on the road soon again - departure mid Sept from Delhi. This second part of the journey will take me from India to Nepal through SE Asia all the way to Australia. I'd wish to join the HU meeting in Lahore early Oct, but will struggle with the Indian visa. Can't leave India for a few days as you have to stay outside India for 2 months before you can re-enter. What a pity!!!
Greetings, BigTom

www.PakistanBikersClub.com 22 Aug 2011 19:58

Hi Tom,
Would be wonderful to have you for the meet. You might consider starting your trip from Pakistan and then enter India; its only 15 miles from Lahore.
Things are reving up here and the arrangements for the meet are going well.

Cheers

Hey friends at the PakistanBikerClub, Omie and travellers!

Here is my latest update: I managed to get my Indian visa with a stamp reading: "Allowed Two Entries without Gap of 2 months". Yeah! If all goes well, I will make it to the meeting in Lahore Oct 8/9 coming from India!
Please cross fingers that my Pakistan visa will be OK, too. Should know my next Monday.
Greetings,
BigTom

BigTomsRide 31 Aug 2011 13:11
