Planned route

In February 2008 I will be swapping the clear skies and open spaces of New Zealand for the busy streets of Hong Kong.  From there I'm heading up to Beijing by train before boarding my velo in mid March to embark on a journey from one end of Eurasia to the other along the Silk Road.

I'll be heading west from Beijing, through Western China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Georgia and on through Europe and plan to be back in London by mid August 2008.

I will be taking a boat across the Caspian Sea and will probably end up on a train or two, but the aim is to get home from Hong Kong overland...
