China Crossing (Kyrgyzstan -> Pakistan) - July 2018
 

Hi!

I'm looking for riders to form a group with me to cross China in mid-July of this year. I have already confirmed arrangements + dates with NAVO Tours and they are in the process of making the necessary arrangements, so regardless of whether I manage to find any others with which to form a group, I will be making the journey (that doesn't mean I don't want others to join, but rather to reassure anyone interested that this trip/itinerary WILL go ahead).

The dates are Monday 9th to Friday 13th July, entering China via Irkeshtam on the Monday, and leaving China via the Khunjerab Pass into Pakistan on the Friday.

I have been given the following price breakdown:
2 bikes = 14,500 CNY (≈ €1,870)
3 bikes = 12,070 CNY (≈ €1,550)
4 bikes = 10,800 CNY (≈ €1,390)

NAVO Tours are mentioned pretty often on the HUBB, but for those unfamiliar with them they have a great reputation - I was personally recommended them by Roman from the 2013 Mongol Rally team, PZM (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vX7FMuulQnc). My dealings with them so far (they gave me all the paperwork I needed for my visa - which I collected yesterday without any hiccups, and they are all set for my arrival on 9th July with all the documents they need) have been entirely positive.

I have until the end of May to find other group members, so if you are at all interested in joining me, please do get in touch at jamestownsend94@gmail.com.

Cheers!
