Vladivostok to Europe - timing
 

Hi all

Have been reading some very interesting info both on the HUBB and other sites re road conditions on the Trans Siberian Highway. At the moment, my plan is to ship my Landcruiser from Bangkok and for it to reach Vladivostok at the end of April. Then, cross Russia, Mongolia and the stans before returning to the UK in mid-July.

2 questions - is this (nearly) 3 months long enough to do all this travelling? and what will the weather be like? I have heard worrying stories about how the Trans Siberian Highway turns into a mudbath at certain times of the year, so any info anyone can give re this would be greatly appreciated.
