and onto Pakistan..

So we have had a great 3 months riding in India and Nepal so far. We started in Calcutta then went north through Sikkim, Nepal, Uttaranchal, and down to Delhi where we parked it for a month while we spent Xmas/NY in Europe. Since picking it up in early Jan we have been riding around Rajasthan and am heading north now from Jodhpur for the Indian/Pakistani border crossing at Wagah road, which we plan to cross on the 14/2.


Its been an awesome ride so far but am really keen to get into Pakistan and see what's really going on. Its hard to tell just where is safe to travel with so much crap published in the media but im sure we will have a lot more color once we get to Lahore and speak to the locals. Assuming the north is not too dangerous to travel we will head up to Islamabad then across to Peshawar and 'up the Khyber' (as long as its not being done to me!!) before heading south to Multan, Uch Sharif and down to the ruins of Moenjodaro before heading into Balochistan and its capital Quetta, where we will pick up our Iranian Visas before heading to the pak/Iran border at Taftan.


We have loads of great film and Photos that were gonna upload shortly and if ur keen you can also follow us using the Spot GPS tracker (see links). As great as India is things will be getting more more interesting from here!
