On the road all day after breakfast at Hovd and only got this far. Stereo and CB Radio broken otherwise car is fine. Still convoying with Behi Watch Taleda, also on and off with the Bounders who drive faster but have exhaust & overheating issues@

Republic of Altai, Russian Federation
Stunning drive through Altai mountains, with rivers, forest, plains, yaks, cattle, sheep and camels. Camping on plains by border tonight with snow capped mountains all around. Awesome.
Semey, Kazakhstan
Crappy hotel, city looks like a dump too. Still, 40 yrs of nuclear tests nearby can't help it attract much investment
Almaty, Kazakhstan
looking for somewhere to camp with team kehiwatch with stunning mountain views to the east after spending the morning in Almaty
Zhambyl, Kazakhstan
travelling through mountains ( with snow) with a Spanish basque team Carlos and Kepa. Also mongol moose and a welsh team some time ahead
Jizzakh Province, Uzbekistan
Nowhere seems to sell any petrol over 80 octane. All the cars here run on LPG. Could get to Samaraqand but may not be able to get back to the border...
Tashkent, Uzbekistan
Got through Kazakh side of border after mammoth effort. Now in no mans land surrounded by trucks, don't know if we'll get through tonight as it was supposed to close 30 mins ago!@
