Turkey to Nepal: Typical Cruising Speed?
I am trying to plan a rough schedule on how long it will take to travel across Asia. The big question is how much time it takes to travel on the main roads. I plan on taking the traditional overland route from Turkey to Nepal and ultimately to SE Asia with some side trips up the KKH and the Northern India mountain areas.
So I am wondering, what is a typical cruising speed and how fast can I ride on the main highways in the following countries:
-Turkey
-Iran
-Pakistan (including the KKH)
-North India
-Nepal
I don't care about the urban areas, I expect slow going in these spots. But knowing if I can cruise at 30mph or 70mph outside the cities makes a big difference in how much progress I can expect to make each day.
I will be fully loaded two-up on a Transalp if that is a factor.
Thanks for the help...
