Hi Mark
In May last year I was up there and it was all still closed.
The road itself up to the border was excellent and sealed all the way up to the military checkpoint (about 20kms south of the border itself...we did some fast talking to get through and had to get special permission from some highup dude who let us ride to the border with an escort and then stay the night at Tatopani a few ks down from the bridge. We were the first tourist's they had seen up there since the quake so really lucked in).
After the checkpoint the road was pretty broken up. But really nothing different from the rest of Nepal. We were on road bikes and all very manageable. There were busy rebuilding it anyway so by now it should be all good.
I had heard that the border is open again....or will be very shortly.
Anyway go for it...you should be all good.
Cheers
John
