We are currently planning on driving from Aus to the uk next August there are 3 of us and we are having similar problems... What route to take one you get hrough Thiliand? We are actually considering flying the bikes over china and continuing on from Mongolia/Russia as this seems to be the more straightforward route bar the Russian visa but at least ordinary people can afford it. Any ideas on this would be appriciated??
Thanks

G'day
Fantastic to get your post. My planning is still very fluid and as yet I have not committed to any one plan.
The route options through Thailand are limitless. This is probably my one and only shot at this so I want to see as much as I can. My early plan was Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand (heading toward Bangkok then east toward Cambodia), southern Cambodia, Vietnam (Voyage Vietnam Mototours organising vehicle entry permits etc.), Laos and then China, and so forth. China is proving to be expensive and very restrictive so looking other options.
Now I am looking at Chiang Mai ( northern Thailand ) and air freighting the bike to the next destination possibly Bangladesh or India.
My ideal is doing the 'stans', Iran and Turkey perhaps touching southern Russia and even Georgia.
How advanced is your planning and are the three bikes all committed to the trip? Are you looking for other starters?
Have a safe trip.
David
