Rode Astrakhan to cross into Kazakhstan, Ponton Bridge 50r. Ferry free and more fun. Stayed at Riverside Inn/hotel in Atyrau. If you book inadvance it's $32 a night. Secure parking and ex pats in Bar.
Atyrau to Aqtobe starts ok, then 200 km of no road. Returning to bad roads. I did it ok in 12 hrs on a CRF250L. Fell off in some soft wet sand. It's been raining a lot.
