Turkey to Australia 2014
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am in the very very early stages of planning a trip from Turkey to Australia on my BMW GSA. The plan at this stage is to ship mu bike (or bikes depending if some of my colleagues come along) to Turkey in April and attend the dawn service in Gallipoli. ( I did think about doing this for the 100th anniversary but I have heard you will be only able to attend if you are picked from a ballet). So it will be the 99th. From there I intend to follow the Silk Route through Turkey,Georgia, Caspian Sea, Turkmenistan,Uzbekistan,Kyrgystan, China,Laos, Thailand, Malaysia,Indonesia and then Timor Leste then catching a boat to Darwin.
I would be grateful for any information that you can give me.
I have checked some basic facts on the Web but there is a lot of conflicting information.
At the moment I have the following
How to get my bike to Turkey
How to get my bike from either Singapore or Dili back to Darwin.
I will have an international drivers permit.
Any info on crossing borders, do I need to get a licence in China?, places to see and stay absolutely anything would be great.
I plan to take 8 weeks for the trip
Regards
