  • Rest day in Bukhara

  • Moving on along the Silk Road to Bukhara, Uzbekistan’s most sacred town.

  • One more rest day in Samarkand.

  • A welcome rest day in Samarkand to do the big laundry and giving the bikes a treat. The rugged mountain lined Pamir Highway are behind, the flat gravel desserts are ahead.

  • On the way to Samarkand, leaving Tajikistan and crossing into Uzbekistan.

  • On the way to the border with Uzbekistan through the Tunnel of Death and a great lake.

  • A day in Dushanbe

  • Last day on the Pamir Highway, on the way to Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan.

  • Another day on the Pamir Highway. On the broken road along the border to Afghanistan from Khorog to Doshtag.

  • Decided to take the direct route along the original Pamir Highway to Khorog yesterday and enjoy a rest day in Khorog after a long punishing drive on one of the most challenging roads yesterday.
