france to Kyrgyzstan; some flights too

Hi all
I am just thiking about a ride from France to Kyrgyzstan , maybe but he southern route ( mean Turkey Iran) or the north via Russia. All possible for the moment .
Why just exploring possibilities ???
I think I can do it, if I take the time because my little level of expertise is here ( riding for 44 years and some hard pistes last month and so )
There is another opportunity called the whizz

It is a new wing which allows more wind ( seaside ) and mountains flights and is very light and simple , with the seat minimum , less than 4 kg !!
So I could take it with me and find/take time to fly a little .
Of course I know I wont find so many co-riders for this so
first find a good route . I know there are nice " spots " in caucase !

no google trad'

Hello
I do not use any google traduction, or g-mail, only the internet engine sometimes. Very seldom either.
And , also, I am just looking for some advice about the better route, as there are at least spots for flying in Georgia, Armenia an Kyrghistan for sure .
Now I am checking the possibilty of doing this with the wing or not .
Not really sure because of the gear needed, the weight and so on .

Sorry

I am very sorry if my previous message sounded rude , in my ignorance I failed to look at the vemo page you set into your thread . It all makes sense now .
And that your English is a lot better than my French , and I have been here for three years .
I too am thinking of a trip but taking a more middle route destination Moscow meeting with a friend in Germany .
Once again sorry for my ignorance .
Regards Martin

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
