EO members are planning a self drive trip from Vladivostok to St Petersburg, in 2009. Areas to be visited includes Mongolia and Central Asia, and a large part of Russia.
The trip will be expensive, probably in the order of $50,000 per vehicle, have duration of six months and cover driving of some thirty thousand kilometres, over variable country.
We are sending our vehicles on a container ship in early April 2009 with the real adventure commencing in May. Serious planning for the trip commenced in January 2008 and continues.
We have an Exploroz blog for the trip here is a reference to one part:
