Hey there Barney,
My best mate and I are also planning Oz to UK next year, although earlier than you by the sounds of things. We've also got a similarly hopeful budget to you.
We're planning on taking off in February - riding as much as we can South to North in Oz (we're Melbourne based), before shipping to KL and continuing from there. Just researching the China crossing now, and it goes without saying that the bigger the party, the cheaper the crossing. Did you plan to ride through China, or just around it? (Not sure what you meant by 'shipping through South Korea')
Very open to joining forces if it benefits all parties.
Jimmy
