London to mongolia (and on) starting april
 

Hello

Im just seeing if anyone is interested in meeting up for some or all of this trip. I leave london around the 1st of april and spending a week travelling in europe with my dad. Before heading east towards Russia.

Hitting up the stans and hoping to meet a friend in (eastern) kazakhstan after the other stans around the start of june and then on.

Im planning to ship my bike from mongolia to Canada/america. Im thinking vancouver.
Then working my way down towards south america..

So looking to see if anyone is up for meeting for some or all of this trip?
im very easy and laid back, Willing to help with any problems, fairly mechanically minded.

Riding a tenere which I have just bought so will be saving the pennies with camping and hostelling.

Reply on here or message me if your interested

Small bit about me... 25, Male carpenter from London. I have previous experience of travelling to mongolia unfortunately not seeing much due to a crash in 2013. Determined this time to get there and have a good look around.

(dependant on russian Visa being granted)

Also have an overland prepped xt600e for sale in the travel bikes section if your looking for a bike to come with me on :)

Traveling east
 

Hi I am also heading in that direction but am hoping to leave on the 22 march just waiting for Russian visa?? I will be heading towards Turkey then Georgia and into Russia. Don't have an exact time schedule but do know I have to be in and out of Kazakhstan in 15 days before 15 July. then on to Mongolia and eventually South Korea to ship the bike on, hopefully Aus.

Happy to meet you as and when are paths are close and travel together. I'm on BMW 1200gsa and will also be doing lots of camping.

Hi Daren.
interested in your route. Do you have shipping quotes from Mongolia to Korea and onwards? details would be appreciated.

Sorry I don't have any quotes but just remember reading Graham Fields first book that he was advised to get a ferry from Vladivostok to South Korea because there are better transport links. I have Chatted to Moto freight several times and they have just given a rough quote to budget about £2000 every time I come to water (ie Korea to Aus). I'm not on a time scale or a specific route so they cant quote me until I give them some dates.

I know this does not help but my route is very flexible and dependant on visas?
