Just to follow the "August Group" and to stay in contact 
For September our Idea is the 3rd or the 10. for boarder crossing.

Hi
My name is Gerry and my wife and I are diving a Land Rover camper through the Stans in the summer. You can see our truck etc on the Celtic Rover website
I am interested to cross from Kyrgyzstan or Tajikistan in August to Pakistan KKH or all the way down to the freedom highway in Nepal
I would like to stay in touch in case we can form a group.
There is also a facebook group called China Transit 2018 which may be useful
Cheers
Gerry

Hello,
My name is Samuel, from Spain but living in Germany. I'll be happy to join you. I am starting in Greece (in April), and heading to South-East-Asia/Oceania. My plan would be also to cross China from Kyrguistan, to Pakistan and Nepal after that.
What is your route? How much would it cost?any other information you could provide is always welcome. (Either on this post or just send me a PM)
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Samuel

China Crossing Aug 2018
Hi Folks,
Do you have a target date in mind for the crossing to China, my planning has moved forward and I am really interested in crossing mid August there is a facebook group in overland sphere "china crossing 2018" with lots of good quotes from different tour companies, but most of that group seems to be targeting early Sept which is too late for me. Perhaps if we all joined there and swapped information we could organise an early group and a late group and get some decent discount for both
I was hoping for the 13th/14th but can flex, one tip I have heard is that you need to take care about weekends and national holidays as some of the borderss are closed (did not check these specific ones yet)
Thoughts ?
Gerry

Hello Pietro,
I am going to Greece in February and I’ll stay there until end of March. After that I’ll cross Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran to reach the Stans. Starting in Turkmenistan I’ll go to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan (Pamir) and to Kyrgyzstan, once in Osh and depending on the time (China crossing starting on August 13th) I’ll go to Tashkent and Bishkek or directly to Bishkek.
After China, Pakistan and Nepal, I may have to leave the motorcycle in Nepal for a week at the end of September (still not sure), and my intention is to be on the Myanmar border by mid-October. To cross Myanmar and Thailand you need (as for China) an agency/guide. After that, in Laos I’ll head south to Cambodia and Malaysia (2nd Thailand crossing) and finally to Indonesia. If everything goes as planned, I’ll be there around Dec’18-Jan’19. Time to fly back to Germany.
This is a bit off topic for this thread, if you want more information; I think it would be better if you send me a pm.
Cheers
Samuel

Update information:
for 3rd of September we have already two Groups, one with 10, the other at the moment with 6 motorbikes, so it would be still possible to join.
