Warwick UK to Adelaide AUS for the Mines Advisory Group
Hi there,
A mate and myself have pledged to get from the UK to Australia to raise money and awareness for the Mines Advisory Group ( MAG | Mines Advisory Group) between March 2011 and Sep 2011.
We would like to have a nice balance between tarmac and off-road, and its our own personal goal to make it to Kazakhstan and Mongolia if possible, and then ride down through China to SE Asia, and once in Malaysia ferry hop to East Timor and catch a boat to Darwin, Aus.
When you're looking at a map this all looks rather simple, but we both know what we wanna do is going to be very difficult, maybe even impossible given our time frame.
I'm really looking for some advice / tips of any beautiful roads along the way we can't miss. Any suggestions would be great!
Furthermore, if anyones had any experience riding through China, I'd love to hear about it; not only if its legally possible, but how you dealt with the highways there, I spent some time in Yunnan and found it hard to fathom riding there!
We could really use any help anyone's got to offer, and I sorry if this post is a bit green, I'm trawling the forum now to see what I can find.
cheers,
John
