Mongolia on a budget June/July 2014
Hi all,
I am looking to do a 3-4 week tour of Mongolia starting either late June or July 2014.
The plan is to fly into UB and buy a cheap new Chinese bike for $500-$600 and either ride it till it dies or sell it when I get back to UB. From my research so far this will get a 150 cc bike which is essentially a road bike with pumped up suspension and offroad tyres.
This is going to be an adventure so don't expect an intricate route map just a rough idea of a few spots to hit and a lot of exploring in between.
There is a company that does self guided tours on GPS which might give a base to start from, they also hire tents etc.
At the moment I will be flying solo but would love one or more travel buddies.
I am a 36 guy from Melbourne Australia with reasonable road riding and offroad riding experience.
I would also love to jump onboard someone else's tour if they are planning on being in Mongolia in June/July/August 2014...Keeping in mind if you are on board a big BMW or KTM adventure machine I won't have a hope in hell of keeping up!
