Bayanhongor, Mongolia

, Altai Mountains
Worst roads ever it is just washboard roads eating our car. Our suspension is shot, trying to fix it when we limp to the next town. So many rally cars have the same problem, coils snapping, shocks blowing apart. Hope the rest of Mongolia is not like this!
Bayan Olgii, Mongolia
first Mongolia breakdown. Our suspension spring broke. We got this old guy to weld it together, not sure it if will last. But it has to only last 1700km... We hope.@

Almaty Province, Kazakhstan
We had ANOTHER tire blow out and it was our brand new tire! But it now is completely gone. Fun and games! We are now just beating the other ones into shape and going on. Mongolia roads (well the lack of them) should be interesting!!@
Kapchagay, Kazakhstan
after a massive day in Almaty dealing with the immigration police to register for Kazakhstan travel we headed off to the lake to camp and relax. Now for the big push to Russia to meet our end time frame.
Almaty, Kazakhstan
Holly hell we just got the crap beaten out of us by a kasak guy and then scrubbed within an inch of our lives at the baths!! It was Fantastic!! But there was one catch. Everyone was nude Kazak style
