Any questions about Czech, just ask. I would spend just one day in Prague and visited Cesky Krumlov for one day and Telc for half a day/ both towns are UNESCO sites/.

I'm leaving London on 24 July, heading to Köln for an appointment, then leaving Köln on 27 July on a very similar route - Prague then down to Turkey via Hungary, Romania etc (incl. Transfagarasan). Only thing is I need to be in Athens by mid August, so I intend to go as far east in Turkey as poss, then down to coast and into Greece via Rhodes (for example) and ferry to Athens. Then back to UK by end of the month. On a GSA and camping most of the time - no specific itinerary, just a direction and a deadline for Athens which will determine how far I get before I turn west.
So we could be on the road at more or less the same time...

Wow. It sounds like you have put a good amount of preperation into your trip already.
I will leave Germany towards Iran at the end of August, so timewise we are not quite compatible.
I am also interested in knowing how you intend to get into Iran without the carnet. You sure about this? It can be a real bummer finding out once you are there, that there is no way to get in the country.
Have a good trip and maybe we meet on the road  .

Migo,
You're lucky that you live in Germany, hence ADAC is on your doorstep. I live in Australia and my bike is English registered, which makes obtaining a CDP problematic. I've spoken to, and emailed several people from this site that have recently been from Turkey into Iran without a CDP.
Search this site and you'll find their posts.
Since you live in Germany I would use ADAC. If you get completely stuck, there is a 'fixer' who'll sort it for you - his details can also be found on this site.

Thanks for your recommendations. My plans are to visit:
1. Karlovy Vary,
2. Prague - 3 nights (catchup on laundry) and take a trip to Pilsen (  )
3. Kutna Hora (Church of Bones)
4. Litomysl
5. Olomouc
6. Frydek-Mistek (enroute to Krakow).
Plus your suggestions.
Any other 'must-sees' you can recommend?
Cheers

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
