Biysk, Russia
Stopped for speeding again! Choice between a $50 fine or going to jail and having the car crushed. They don't mess around here. Paid up.
Aynabulak, Kazakhstan
Stopped for doing 7kmph over the limit. A $100 dollar fine quickly turned into $5 and a rendition of happy birthday for the officer.
Almaty, Kazakhstan

Namangan, Uzbekistan
Long day of driving and hitting the border tonight. Will it still be open? Doubtful. Camping at border crossings FTW.
Samarkand, Uzbekistan
Arrived after only a few hours driving from bukhara, eating shashlik in a local eatery before going to find vodka! Day off tomorrow.
Bukhara Province, Uzbekistan
Got to Bukhara at 11pm and got lost in the back streets after 8 hours of bad roads, no roads, getting mooned and convoying.
Khorazm, Uzbekistan
We discovered that there's a fuel shortage in Uzbekistan and none of the petrol stations are open. None. Cue bargaining with black market petrol dealders for 20 litres of 80 RON petrol at the side of the road. Should be enough to get us to bukhara.@
Khorazm, Uzbekistan
Shot down the "motorway" to khiva and just enjoying some local cuisine and beer. Going to check out the town tomorrow before hitting bukhara.
