Where will be the toughest part of the route?
Tricky question to answer given there are so many factors that could contribute to a part of the route being ‘tough’. But based on what we know Western China doesn’t sound like a great thrill! 3000km of highway through empty desert and nasty headwinds means this is likely to be one of the most challenging sections of the trip. Here’s a glimpse of what it’s going to be like based on what we kind find on the internet.

At least we know it’s possible!
No wagon surfing allowed! Pooing in tunnels acceptable…
