Kyrghyzstan
Of the countries surrounding it, this is the most unfortunate, someone from our group has read the guide here is dangerous but not see that what happens during our stay.
The streets RHD are half off the road, with a step between the mountains that for sure was furrowed a few hundred years earlier by Marco Polo himself, and we believe, to go to China this is 'single step coming from the capital Biskek. Here we speak the Kyrgyz but also Russian, do not forget that it was under Soviet domination for a long time, only with the arrival of Gorbachev to power this country has again spartano autonomy.

Here is a make gasoline, there are no petrol stations, some in town, and so you stop at the edge of the street and ask passers, which instantly disappear and reappear several minutes later by hand in glass bottles or however, containers of all types and capacities with an inside that looks like something to petrol, and so do the full. incredible but true. naturally octane gasoline are unknown, the famous beat in the head is normal.
Great as the austria Kyrgyzstan is very high, the average height is 2700 meters.
Sleep in un'albergo so that call is a slap in the category. A room with 2 beds with mattresses of straw at the bottom of the corridor, and the Cabinet on the other side with a water and white pottery is not anything more, it seems the process of a coal mine, however, the view does not matter matter effectiveness, and not to mention the shower, still cold with a single pipe on the wall. about the hygienic paper you have to ask at reception and Jun do you give a roll without the cardboard tube which is wrapped.
On the other since it's August, Jun street selling watermelons that good after having bought one at almost zero cost, tasted with pleasure.
Here are several uranium mines, the largest entry of the national GDP. Tourism is almost zero, even the air of the local airline is crumbling, the usual old Tupolev sovietici.Altro reason to despair for the visitors.
We start the next morning to the time of the Chinese border, and we meet before the big climb, a great place to check for blocking the passage of goods and perhaps even un'occhiatina documents. From there on the road just for us bikers are also very attractive because the day is not very cold and there's the sun.
Let's see a step in the distance and high snowy mountains, my friend confirmed that it is the beginning of the mountain dell'imalaya which is already in China.
Then we descend into the valley and yet for a hundred km spend a unpaved road full of holes, just as well that my Yamaha 600 is designed to keep these tracks, a little less than George on board a motorcycle bmw road, in fact He then potted the wheel, and the last to arrive in the middle of the village where we do nothing the last petrol before going on the border with the Great country.
