Temporary Bike Insurance at Russian Border
Hi everyone,
We have just travelled through the Polish/ Ukrainian border and were asked for our green card at the border post- when i have travelled this way previously i have been allowed into Ukraine to purchas the GC at the office sited at the petrol station. The border guards at first insisted we walk out to the GC office, purchase the GC and return to the border post to continue our way with our motorcycles. In the end they relented and allowed us to proceed on our bikes to the GC office to purchase our GC. Within a 1/4 mile of the office we were challanged by the police and upon seeing our newly purchased GC were waved on.
Can anyone tell me if we can purchase shorterm insurance for Russia in the Ukraine before the borderpost- would smooth things over somewhat ;-) Thanks for any information received.
Henry
