Shipping is from Tbilisi.

I think I won't make it to Pamir this year. Due to an injury I will stay at least 4-6 weeks in Tbilisi. :(

FWIW early June I met a german in Fairy Tail canyon in kyrgyzstan and he made it there on his GSA riding via Verkhny Lars. He did have a multi entry visa and invitation but otherwise it was a smooth sailing. Cards do not work so you have to account for that.

I went through Verkhniy Lars on 18th? without any issues, except for spending time to fill TIP paperwork 3 times (hint: bring blue pen black doesn't cut it). And long traffic jam on the border.

Now no western card will work in russia so you have to bring cash.

Hey Cyclopathic, that's awesome, congrats! Are you sticking around Russia or moving on to the stans? As an American I am just personally not comfortable trying to go through Russia right now, so I'm here in Tbilisi trying to get the bike into Azerbaijan.

I was en-route to central asia so was through in 2 days. Don't worry as an american you wouldn't have any issues; at least I didn't besides normal things like having to fill out my custom's paperwork 3 times. People are friendly at least most of them and weren't confrontational by any means. This was the second time I had crossed russia; first time in June on the way from KZ to Norway.

As for AZ they're closed 'till Sept 1st.
