Audience with adventure: Iran
Last year I planned a trip through Europe and Turkey, to Iran. But when I found out that a UK subject could not travel in Iran without an official guide I changed my plans, since I neither wanted to pay, nor did I wish to travel with a guide.
This evening I learnt that there is to be an Iran travel event next Thursday, 26 November organised by Secret Compass at a pub in Bristol. The film Karun, is about two British adventurers who canoe Iran's longest river. This is followed by a Q&A session with the film director Tom Allen, travel writer Mark Stratton and adventure motorcyclist Lois Pryce, who recently travelled through Iran.

I would still like to go to Iran, and I would like to know how Ms Pryce managed to do her recent motorcycle trip there. So I may well make an appearance at the event next week if I can get organised.
If any other UK citizens have managed to motorcycle in Iran lately without a guide I would love to hear how they did it.
