We left the lovely family in Jammu after a nice breakfast and hit the road, still humbled after an unexpected free nights sleep and food. The traffic didn't treat us as kindly though, slowing us on the thin, bumpy roads. The road into the mountains had two lanes, but one was completely full of trucks, … Continue reading Day 143 to 157 – North India loop

Day 95 to 109 – Karakul to Sary-Tash via Bishkek
Woke up all through the morning from 2am when it really got cold until 6am when I couldn't get back to sleep any more. I stumbled out the tent for a wizz to an amazing sight, looking over the lake to a clear view of the mountains again. Most mornings when I wake up, it … Continue reading Day 95 to 109 – Karakul to Sary-Tash via Bishkek
Day 91 to 94 – Khorog to Karakul

Day 46, 47 & 48 – Ezurum to Van and Kars

Day 36, 37 & 38 – Gallipoli, Erdek and Beach Hell

The hotel owner was still asleep on the sofa in reception, obviously, but I got the bike geared up then waited a little for the rain to slow, I … Continue reading Day 36, 37 & 38 – Gallipoli, Erdek and Beach Hell
Day 30, 31 & 32 – Skopje to Varna
A groggy start to Day 30 after staying up till 4am but it was a day off anyway, no riding planned at all. I went for a wander over to a shop I had been planning to visit (XMKD.com), they had been holding a part for me for nearly 2 weeks. I broke a clip … Continue reading Day 30, 31 & 32 – Skopje to Varna
