Shipping from Europe to/from Eastern Russia or Mongolia
Hi
I've just started to plan the summer adventure :-)
I've decided to travel from Sweden to russia/mongolia and back. I only have 5-6 weeks starting end of june, so it would be nice if I could find a way to reduce the miles on the road.
Efter reading some posts I think that perhaps the easiest way would be to ride to moscow where I could take the train to irkutsk. There i'd get off with my bike. Travel around Mongolia and then ride back to europe.
Anyone experience with putting the bike on the train as cargo/baggage? Do I have to book place for the bike in advance or can i just show up with my bike and expect to get it with me? I guess I'll have to book the train ticket a few days in advande, witch I guess I could do when passing St Petersburg. Any idea what the cost would be?
Another option would be to ride to magadan and then ship the bike back to stockholm. Any ideas of a company that would ship from magadan to Stockholm/Europe?
See you on the road :-)
