Hotel or Hostel can be found a long 219 small towns. I can find a place to stay relatively easy. But as a foreigner, there is a law saying that only certain hotels are allowed to put up foreigners. Having said that, laws are not streightly enforced there. It all depends how good your guide is We carry the tent mainly for emergency in the Northern Route where there is a no-man's-land.

Thanks for the info Franki, been reading about the Hotels and restrictions and talking with our guide Spring, she says no problems she will make it happen, but still good to carry a tent, been living in Thailand to long and dont know how the body will take the cold, especially camping at those altitudes, may need to take some Rum along.

We have a four wheel drive support vehicle all the way in China, carrying the English speaking Guide and some of our bike gear.
The Chinese part is already pre booked, using an Accredited Chinese tour Company based in Urumqi.
We are keeping the group size small {max4} due to the terrain and lack of facilities on the way.
There are already three confirmed riders, with deposits paid.

We are arriving China from Kirguistan next 10th September, We are interested in being part of a group.

Hi
We have had a few changes we actually enter China on the 5th September from Kyrgyzstan now, as i previously mentioned we have kept the group size small [two riders and 1 4WD], deposits have been paid two months ago so it maybe difficult to re organise now as the paper work process has already been started, drop me a PM with some details about your plans and numbers and i can ask the other members their views.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
