Hi,

I am in Kyrgyzstan now and heading towards Europe....eventually I will turn around and head back to Australia. I also want to go overland, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand etc. I have heard its possible but havnt actually read any accounts. Do you guys know if it is actually possible? Do you need to have a guide?

We are also planning to cross Myanmar around early to mid October 2015 from India. 2 Riders definite, possibly 3 riders. I am in contact with Mr Tin from Bright View Travel. Are you dealing with him as well?

Hi Sinky,
It would be great to be able to form a big group. Our current plan is to enter Burma on 5th October. We are trying to time it so we can attend the Malaysian MotoGP. Would you be able to enter a week earlier?

Malaysian MotoGP is on 25th October. This will mark the end of trip for one of my friends. If entering on 5th October, it will only give us 11 days to see Thailand and then rush to KL. Delays in entering would mean less time. May be we can compromise and meet half way? I will need to consult the others.
