Hi Dave.
Thanks for that. just to let you know i have been in contact with Min Min who says she is aware of your intentions.
I'm fairly sure I'll be able to commit with in the next few weeks once i have my ducks in a row. How does that sound?
My rough plan at the moment is: tiki tour around a bit of Oz mid Jan to mid Feb, then ship to Kuala Lumpur & head north. A mad dash with you fella's & then I'll continue meandering north west. Im hoping to be in Greece for the summer.
Cheers
Bondie

Hi Bondie
That all sounds fine. There is also another person interested in joining so we may have 5 people which will bring the cost down to around US$1500 based on single or less on share twin.
Three of us are booked and deposited so it's a firm trip. Be great to have you along.
Cheers

Hi guys,
I'm planning to leave KL in late january/february, so far my intention was to cross thailand and laos first for a bit and then move over to myanmar, what are the possibilities of joining you guys in Thailand for the Myanmar border crossing?
Also. I'll be on a malay registered bike, so I'm currently working on a list of documents/requirements for each country plus getting started with visas. I also plan on getting back to europe from KL.
So Im quite interested to join you but I'm still figuring stuff out. What is the latest date to confirm in case I want to join you?

Hello Mundscheck
Yes that sounds fine and it would be good to have you along. I am not aware of any deadline for booking so just get in touch when you have a firm plan. I would imagine the earlier the better.
Best wishes

Keep in touch
Hey all,
Keep me posted-- If I can't ship around Thailand and Myanmar, I might want to join a group if it isn't too late. I'll be in Kuala Lumpur by Christmas of this year, and then take a break. Riding a DR650 from Australia to Europe, and would love to meet up with people in India/Nepal/Pakistan/China if paths cross!
Thanks,
Elisa

Hello Travelbugblues
Thanks for getting in touch. I have a quote from Aisa senses confirming the price for the tour based on 5 people to be US$1295.00 in a twin share or US$1495.00 if in a single room. This is a for a 10 day Thai/Myanmar crossing to include hotels, guides and permits (as described at the start of this post).
At the moment we are at 4 people. We have one place left to allocate which is open for the first person who wishes to book. According to the agent once the group goes above 5 people extra escorts are required and the price starts to creep up again.
I can only suggest getting back in touch as soon as you can as there are a couple of other people interested also.
Best wishes with your plans.

Thanks! I've decided to try my luck at the Thai border and see what happens, in February. Good luck to you all!
