I will take of for CA in April. My intended route is up to Bishkek and to Astrahan through Kazakhstan.

Greetings!
On April, 13-14 we in Teheran shall receive the Pakistan visa. We can meet there.
If you know, answer one question.
The information or experience of entrance on territory of Iran without carnet, for a bribe, "bakshish"
I yesterday talked on ICQ to the girlfriend from Makhachkala. Quality of motorways normal. There is one problem - blockhouses of road militia through everyone of 50-70 kilometers. You lose a lot of time for check of the passport and luggage.
