Don't forget you can camp at the customs compound about 130kms from the border (inside Pakistan). Very friendly/generous officials who even gave me my own bed...

The border post is great safe and free also you can get a very cheap and good meal in the truckers restaurant.

Have a look at our iranian blog.

The yellow tyre in the picture? Thats actually my spare rear tyre leaning next to the front wheel, its a pretty rubbish $50 Goldenboy tyre from Islamabad that I was carrying, much thinner than the original rear but it was all I could buy.

Cheers about the video, yes after a while I thought 'well if you're all just going to stare at me, I can also stare at you!'.
