30th Birthday in Iran
 

G'day all

Have just overstayed my transit visa in Azerbaijan and am heading to Iran in a few days.

It's my 30 birthday on 1 November, and if I don't end up on prison :rofl: I would love to celebrate my birthday with some fellow bikers on the road in Iran. I don't even have a map of Iran yet (was a last minute decision to go there, can't find a map in Baku), so not sure where to go for the big day.

Anybody up for a beer with a lonely Aussie on a Honda Africa Twin?:welcome:

Astara
 

Hey Joe!

Am crossing at Astara. I still can't find a map here in Baku and the internet connection here is dial up so no google earth, so I have no idea where Muka is.
I will get a map either at a truckie stop on the way down the coast or once I get to Iran.
Have heard Takhte Soleiman (Takt-i-Taqdis) on Holy Mountain of Shaz, south of Miyaneh, west of Zanjan, near Takab is supposed to be worth a visit. Is that in the same direction?
Don't mind heading to Muka either way.

Hı Tracey,
Tabrız ıs about half way between Maku and Astara, about 300km maybe 350km
each way I thınk dont have me maps ınfront of me when are you crossıng over ??

Hey Joe

Will leave Baku tomorrow, and may cross the border same day. But, it took me 12 hours to cross the border coming in. Going out, I will have to deal with the fact that I have overstayed my visa, and on top of that, when entering Iran, I will have to deal with the fact that I have no carnet. So what I will do is send an email from somewhere across the border. Maybe Tabriz, if things go well.
My email is camtracey-at- gmail-dot-com
I see your crossing Sunday direction Maku, so that gives me a day to get things sorted and contact you.
Wish me luck, (will briefly check my emails later tonight if you have any updates)
