Yea, I think a few more days and I would have achieved resident status in Vladivostok. I was there for 21 days in all, a few days with customs, lots of days waiting for the CDI unit for my KTM to arrive from Germany, etc... Jun Ishibashi is now in Mongolia with a broken subframe on his Suzuki Djebel(due to the Khabarovsk - Chita road), Peter crashed his BMW R100GS on the same road and is recovering from a broken rib in Ulanbataar. I am now in Khabarovsk and will attempt the road soon. Anyways, Grandy, Shustrik, Sinus, and the rest of the guys in Vladivostok were great. They helped me with everything and then some! A fantastic community. Thanks guys!

Just a heads up for anyone going to Vladivostok. The Vladivostok HU community is NOT affiliated at all with the Iron Tigers. There are acutally a few biker groups in town and Iron Tigers is just one of them. Sinus was formerly one of the big shots with the IT, but broke with them a while back. You can't help but meet Sinus when you arrive. Its a rite of passage and everybody here knows the man.

I only knowingly met 1 Iron Tiger member while was here, just as I was leaving Vladivostok. He was a really nice guy, and I'm sure that whatever inter-biker politcs caused the split won't affect foreign bikers in the least.
