SAY WHAT?????
We are going off-road from the PL-UA border all the way to Mongolia and back to KZ before going south.
You are seriously wrong there mate...
There's a BIG difference in riding all the way on tarmac and then not having this 'luxury' anymore when being in Mongolia, or choosing to not ride all the way on tarmac and enjoying off-road in other places as well.
I just finished planning our first 12.000km of our next big trip, and there's not even a thousand km's that is on a road, so this gives us 11/12th off-road.
You CAN:
- drive all the way on a road
- drive all the way off-road
to Mongolia.
it will change everything depending on what option you choose and how good your map reading skills are and what maps you use...
Nellyk: I just want to give you the advice that there are different kinds of riders, I used to 'rush' so I wanted to get as far as possible in the least amount of time that I had, in the past years I changed about this and I am more happy now, as sometimes I can afford to spend a day or two in a nice spot with good company. Something I missed in my earlier days of riding...
Whatever you decide to do, as long as YOU enjoy it and you think it is/was a good decision, all what we think doesn't matter...
