UK to Mongolia, departing June 2017
 

Hi, Is anyone interested in linking up for a ride from the UK to Mongolia leaving around June ? I can be flexible on dates and route.

I'm game. Would like to be progressing through Russia starting 1 June, though. Thoughts?

Hi:thumbup1:
I am planning a similar adventure indeed I gonna head over Magadan after Mongolia. Would be nice to link up for the Russian part and explore also some remote areas. I gonna ride from Switzerland:scooter:
Are you shipping your bike back from Mongolia?

Cheers
Ken

Hi Transtrain - there's not much detail to go on here.

What's your expected timescale - riding hard all day or loads of stops to look at stuff? Time limited worker drone or lucky enough to be retired? Any idea of your proposed route? What bike are you running - CG125 or GSA1200? Big budget for hotels & restaurants or smaller budget with lots of camping? Riding back home or shipping back home? Your age & experience - first trip abroad or seasoned traveller?

Im interested in a trip like this, or to SE Asia.

Will keep an eye on this thread for more details.

I am also heading to Ulaanbaatar this year. I'm leaving at the end of May and taking a fairly off road route via Central Asia (Pamir).

Do you have a route planned?

Hi 1moremile/skyliner,
Outline plan is to meet with calltoserve in Moscow around 7th of June, allowing about 6 weeks, mostly camping, with occasional hotel/B&B. Preference is mainly dirt roads, I will be on klx 250, calltoserve on BMW1200GS. Calltoserve airfreighting on to USA/Canada, I may ride back from Mongolia or continue to Vladivostock if there is someone to ride back with me. Traveled all of Europe extensively by truck, not been further than Venice by bike. Im 51 years old, been riding 36 years and will be quiting my job to make this trip. Any more questions, please feel free to ask

Hi Hammertime,
Have an outline plan, not going to try to plan every last detail, want to be able to take it as it comes. Does our plan interest you ?

Am currently getting time off authorised for a 3 month ride from May or June. After Mongolia are you heading back to UK? I had planned to see a friend in Bulgaria, before or after an excursion of which Bulgaria would be far enough. In live in the south UK, so a start off is possible.
What bike are you using?

Heading over to Europe from Canada with plans of heading east with eventual destination being Magadan. I will be on an 650 XChallenge and my wife on a XT250. Retired so no time limitations. Plan on as much off road as possible.

I am riding from Bulgaria (Expat Brit) through Turkey, then Georgia, Russia, Kazak,the mongolia and of course back. Will be spending as much time as poss off road.
Camping all the way, with no real time constraints. Riding a 950 S Ktm.

Happy to join someone else on route.

I will be crossing Turkey in June/July where I used to run off road tours and lived for 7 years. I have never been farther east than Cappadokia so will be exploring this area in detail. I even speak a little Turkish well enough to get fed and watered.

Happy for companions.

My base is in Bulgaria where you are also welcome.

Chris.

I am ride to and from Mongolia in July, starting from Bulgaria. No time constraints. KTM 950 S. Off road more than on I hope.
