No problem.
Anyone else?
Let me know ASAP, but before 3 December please.
To clarify, £10-12 is estimated total of the cost of both the atlas and postage from/to UK.
I am happy to mail elsewhere from UK or locally en-route as I cross northern Europe (LT, LV, PL, D, NL, B, F.

Especially on the main Trans-Siberian road, there is not that much to worry about, there only one road and no shortage of fuel, food, lodging. I have not been up to the Yakutsk/Magadan area yet, but there you need to pay more attention to where'll you'll find the basics. I think, however, that Colebatch's waypoints and the info in his ride reports on ADVRider should provide about all the info you need (along with a basic roadmap).

T.Rex got his as I mailed it to him in Germany last friday as I was driving across Germany between my homes.
The others for UK folks are now safely here with me in London.
I will be mailing them out in the next day or two - as soon as I have dealt with the 4 months mail piled up behind the front door!
Sorry for the delay. Hopefully you can all be looking at routes during the holiday break!

Andysr6, Oothef, Chris, Harryboi, Servdave, Holdragon and DaveEde.
Your Atlases were mailed yesterday morning, Saturday 18th.
There is one left if anyone wants (final cost was GBP10 including P&P), otherwise I can get more and bring to UK at beginning of March.
The one Colebatch prefers (which I believe I got for him!) was not available in 3 map/book shops in Moscow. From memory it only shows roads and did not have much, if any, topographical information other than rivers and rail.

Tony,
If its still available I'd like to buy your last copy of the atlas. I plan to spend 3 months next year going from Vladivostok to Europe and at the moment don't have any decent maps. I can send you a British address (my father) to keep the posting for you simple and I'll get him to forward it onto me here in Australia (he's bound to be sending other stuff post christmas).
Let me know how to get the money to you and I'll send it right away.
All the best

Does anyone know any good bookstore in St.Petersburg where to get that mapbook Tony mentioned and expecially maps from Arkangel and Karelia area?
I am planning ride for next summer from Finland through Karelia to White Sea and then back going around Ääninen and Lagoda lake. I will most likely visit St.Petersburg during winter and having big papermap of that area would help putting for planning like where to find fuel etc and where are routes what people have driven.
