On the road again

Well, actually we're having a day off today. But we reached asphalt and Ulanbaatar yesterday. Today we'll just walk around town and tomorrow or the day after head towards Russia.
We had an a great time in this vast country, and I will definitely return. Before getting to Mongolia we heard the wildest stories about the roads, or better tracks, and how it would be difficult to get water and petrol, how boring it would be, nothing to see.... none of this turned out to be true. Or maybe were just extremely lucky by picking our way around all difficult areas and towards the nice places. We never had any problems with petrol stations, the motorbikes were good mooded and apart from my rear suspension, which is about to retire, we had no mechanical problems. We didn't even have a flat tire. We didn't break any bones, had no crashes... and so we cannot come up with exciting life-threatening adventure stories. At the moment I cannot even upload pictures - I have to go for a walk around the city - but I'll try to do that later.

Phantastisch, dass Ihr es nun so weit geschafft habt und dass die Mongolei die Erwartungen erfüllt hat. Bis bald
