Mongolia 2018
I will be riding across Europe and Central Asia in May June July 2018 and would like to ride across Mongolia with someone else as i am worried about the river crossings.
I will be heading into Mongolia from the west at about the start of July and could meet in Olgi. Then on to Ulan Baator.
Anyone keen?

Maybe us, but nothing is fixed yet in our plan. And we're with a 4x4 van.
But I see there is a lot going in this topic:

My bike is currently in Tajikistan. I plan to leave Dushanbe in mid June and head to Ulaanbaatar with the aim of arriving there by mid July. I am then carrying on to Magadan. Look my blog up on Facebook, 'Hammering it to Magadan'. We could possibly ride together.
Regards
Chris

Patdeavoll.
If you can ride all that way alone, you shouldn't be worried about river crossings.
If you come to a water crossing that you are hesitant to cross, just wait! It wont be long before a Mongolian on a motorbike or in a car comes along. Stop them and say you are worried about the crossing. They will help you, even walk into the water with their boots on. Everyone helps each other in Mongolia.
You don't have to speak the language, they will understand your hands and face. Trust them.
Ali.
