Europe Asia and South East Asia
Hi all,
I'm planning a major adventure trip on a Triumph later this year. I'll be heading through the following countries (as well as the obvious European ones) Ukraine Russia Kazakhstan China Vietnam - (is it still impossible to get a foreign registered big bike in?) Laos Cambodia Thailand If anyone's ever riden through any of these and has any advice or tips, I'd be eternally grateful. Cheers Phil |

And basically the same goes for Vietnam these days. Or of course you can try your luck on an "unofficial" entry at the borders, but I wouldn´t count on succeeding. The road actually seems to be more freely open to Mongolia & Russian Far East (but you don´t want to be caught out by winter over there). Or also to India, provided you have the carnet, and then you can freight the bike to SE Asia. I did that 3 years ago, and had a great time. |
Hi Pecha,
Thanks for your advice. I travelled in China a few years ago (without a bike) as part of a media trip and even then it wasn't easy. But I guess we wouldn't try these things if they were easy. I'm trying a few things with the Chinese authorities to see what I can get. Will keep you up to date with progress. If I can get through China, then I can either try Laos, or by sea tpo Cambodia or Thailand although I'd rather do the entire trip by land. Thanks again |
