Jochen and Cordula drove their Landy camper towing a trailer with 2 R100GS's through Burma from India to Thailand in 2004. [url=http://ziguin.de]
They drove all the way (& parked up then used the bikes) - had valid paperwork after much persistance chasing Visas & Inner Line permits in Delhi. When officials tried to turn them back they patiently pointed out they needed a very large turning circle with the trailer - not available on the shitty little roads - & then retreated to the camper until the officials gave up & let them continue.
They told us but we had already comitted to flying my bike from Nepal to Bangkok - I told Simon & Suzi & they followed the process then rode through...but were forced to fly the last 200 kms while thier bikes disappeared for 2 weeks. Simon said they had many midnight police raids hassling them & he would not have done it again.
Oh, to be on the road again...sigh.
