India/Nepal and back to Ireland
Hi all,
I've got 4 months off work in february 08 and want to try and achieve a dream of mine of biking from India to Ireland (4 months might be too tight for both ways!!).
Does anyone have any idea of how much an Enfield Bullet 500 (or similar) costs in Nepal (~EUR1,200 in India)? Ideally i'd buy in India but the info here says its illegal and i don't think i'd like the hassle, the same info suggests its legal in Nepal but more expensive?
Are the months of february <-> may an okay time to do this trip (weather etc)?
I haven't fully got my head around the carnet issues yet. But is it possible to buy/arrange them in Nepal?
From the other posts i believe its possible to get visas for Iran and Pakistan. Any gotchas there? Should i sort them out in Ireland or in the countries en-route?
I'm totally new to overlanding so please go easy if some of this has been re-posted before, i have tried to go through as much threads as i can!
Many thanks,
Eamo
