London to Vladivostok - leave July/August '17

[edwardbgill]

Hello there,

Anyone planning headed this way this some, either in part or in total? Am considering a circa 3 month trip headed from Russia through Kaz to Uzbek then across to Tajikistan and the Pamir before cutting north back to go to Ulan Bator and beyond.

I wouldn't have masses of time but equally don't want to rush and spend loads of time on highways - want to do some good exploring. Av of 150km - 170km a day, covering 14,000 - 16,000km in total.

Doing it on a £30 / day budget so (wild) camping, minimal restaurants and hotels/hostels.

Let me know if you're interested in joining.

Yes, I'm doing a similar route to Ulaanbaatar but leaving end of May. Heading to Volgograd and then taking a fairly off road route. Will be doing 150-200 miles per day.

Hey guys, I am also thinking about the same thing. I am living in New Zealand atm but going to be heading back to UK in May/June and picking up my TTR600 and heading east would be great to share some ideas.

Look me up on facebook if you are keen... George Guille

Greetings everyone.

We (2 riders, DR650 and Tenere) will leave Belgium on May 7th. We'll do the Stans, mainly for Pamir, Zorkul, Bartang, ... between mid june and mid july. Going there via Turkey - Georgia - Russia - Kazakhstan - Uzbekistan.
Mostly camping or cheap hostels when available. The route has as many off-tarmac trails as we can find.
I've been in contact with some of you already. If you see an opportunity to join forces for some parts of the trip, send me a note please.

We plan to do roughly 300Km/day. Early start of day, early to bed. Avoiding cities and populated areas. Endpoint for us is Bishkek, from where we fly back home.

Happy to discuss plans, share tracks, learn from others

Cheers,

Joris
