Thanks Colebatch for all the effort you've shown to fellow riders. I downloaded the file and I'm sure I will be using it next year on my Hungary-Magadan-Hungary bike trip.
Great job and a lot of work.
By the way let suppose it will be a dry summer in 2015 in the old summer road area, would you try it solo with F650Gs Dakar packed up?
Thanks for help.

Hi,
Just a (silly) question... 
I don't have any GPS, only paper maps but I'm interested by your file for my next 2015 trip in Russia/stan's  (but with my car)
Is it possible to download it to a file to be printed ( Windows 7).
thanks in advance.
RR.

Old Summer Road? Solo? If you have a sat phone or a spot tracker and are feeling confident, then sure. If not, stick to the Kolyma highway. If you break down or have an accident in the abandoned section (Between Kuranakh Sala and the Hunters Camp near Adygalakh), it might be weeks or even months before another vehicle comes thru there.

Feb 2015 Updates
just a couple ... updates to Mongolian borders and adding in Adygalakh and Kuranakh Sala to the Old Summer Road waypoints so the abandoned section of road is more clear.

Just a notice, the Hotel Europe in Volgograd is gone, they seemed to build an new house on that place. We took another Hotel, the Astoria, not so cheap but great and comfy rooms.

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.
