Anyone remember these guys
 

A while back I remember reading a blog/thread and it had a young ozzie or kiwi couple who were travelling.
All I remember is that she had just sat her motorcycle license before leaving, they were riding smallish offroad bikes [250s I think] but the most memorable thing was their pannier system, it was oil drums[ like those used by rafters ect with the metal clip lids] tied on to the back of their bike with rope. Im sure they did the road of bones in russia.
