Transporting motorcycles in a van in Russia
I am looking at alternative methods of shipping/ transporting motorcycles to the Russian border with Mongolia.
I have looked at putting the bikes on a train, air freight and also in a lorry ( crated) .
All of these are either very expensive or in the case of the train, not easy to organise.
So my next thought was put them in a van and drive them across Russia. Obviously if you either drive a vehicle, or ride a bike over the border, the paperwork is much the same. Vehicle registration document, Driving license, Int Driving license, insurance and temporary importation document.
My idea was Van with 4 bikes, 2 people drive the Van out. Other 2 fly. Meet up, have 2 weeks in Mongolia, then the 2 that drove out fly back and the 2 that flew drive the van back. That way the trip involves 3 weeks away. Sounds simple!
But. How does it work at the border, is it OK to have a van with 4 bikes?
I have looked, but cannot find the answer. Has anyone done this or have an idea where I can find the answer.
Regards Neil
