Kyrgystan – China - Pakistan (middle/end) September 2015
Hello Kim!
At first: Thank you very much for your effort to connect all the people here in the HUBB who wants to go through china in 2015. That is absolut great. Thanks for that!
My name is Christian Vogel. I am 33 years old and live in Diemelstadt, which is a little city in the North of Hessen.
My trip on two wheels will start on May 19, 2015 in Orlando (USA) and should then goes as follows: Canada – Alaska – USA – Russia – Mongolia – Russia - Kazakhstan – Tadzhikistan – Kyrgystan – China - Pakistan – India – Iran – Turkey – Bulgaria – Slovenia – Czech Republic and then back to Germany.
So now I search for a group to travel through China (KKH) preferably in the middle/at the end of September 2015 - to share the costs and so on?
For the last group I am too late now. But maybe we could establish a new one?!
May pricate E-Mail-Adress is: info@vogelsperspektive.de
Best Greetings from Germany,
Christian

looks like 3sep kkh group is full? sinky, given you are shooting for 3sep kkh departure, do you have a firmer date in mind for a burma crossing?
i'm wondering if a later departure group/individual would still be able to link up with a burma crossing somehow
kim, looking back on the pricing breakdown for kkh crossing, i assume that rider visa/entry requirements into china are covered as well? so its just personal expenses (food, accom, fuel, etc) and guide's tip that need to be factored as extra? i wonder if there will be budget conscious options at the intended stops...

Hi Sinky, yep October 12 would work quite nicely for us. We could do anything up to about a week earlier than this, but would prefer no later than the 12th.

Groups not full, as I said there is not a limit I just thought that if we had enough people to make it two groups things might work out easer. I will post the quote below which lists what is included but basically, we need to arrange and pay for our own Visas, food accommodation and gas PLUS the food and accommodation for the guid (plus tips).
Christian & Jose Emilio Agote
Hi, welcome to the thread.
I have updated the second post in this thread and added your proposed enter dates. Hopefully someone will come along who has similar plans. Or maybe someone from this group will change their plans and want to go earlier / later.
