Bob's Silk Road

Location Norwich, England 
Date: 03 Mar 2018

Having passed my half century & wondering when the steepening physical decline would start, I grabbed an opportunity of a career break to realise a long held ambition & cycle the Silk Road alone to China. My wife & friends questioned my sanity but I'm an optimistic sort.
50 's the new 20 right?

Over a period of 4 months I will cycle approximately 6k miles alone & unsupported from Istanbul to Urumqi, China through freezing Turkey[ minus 20C], baking Kazakh & Uzbek deserts[ 40-60C]& high over the Pamir mountains [4000-4600m] .    more >>
