Hi Nathan
Great to hear from you, and thanks for all the info. It sounds like airfreighting from Bangkok to Kathmandu is the best option. I'll definitely consider riding Indonesia too, rather than seafreight from Darwin to Singapore.
Will read up a bit more on problem areas like Pakistan and Iran. Having a New Zealand passport may help (I live in Wellington, but grew up in Sussex, UK).
Thanks also for the contact names - I may be in touch again nearer my departure time. Still need to sort out a few months Leave Without Pay from my work.
Excellent photo! but no, I won't be getting a postie bike - although I guess you're much less likely to get attacked/mugged than riding a flashy BMW bike. Thought I'd take my XT600 which I use to commute to work on and which I should use more off-road!
