One fine morning Happy Dolphin and Barf left Khorog to buy some cheap Chinese tyres and cycle to the roof of the world. Happy Dolphin felt pleased with his new name – the same as his cheap Chinese tyres. Barf had earned the name at 1am at the military base 4 days earlier. After a day of stitching tyres, Pamir stew lunches, and shoulder transport of bicycles over swinging bridges, Happy Dolphin and Barf set up tent in a wolf infested forest under a rock slide.
Reece’s stitched up tyre lasted about 40km. When changing to one of his Happy Dolphin cheap Chinese tyres, he spotted a rip and instead put on his other Happy Dolphin. His second Happy Dolphin is still of service.
While sitting in front of a little shop, gulping down a cola, we were invited to tea by the local village German teacher. Tea turned into lunch and a lovely talk with her daughter who dreams of travelling the world.
The cycle along the valley was stunning. The mountains got bigger and bigger, and the walls of rock higher and higher. The sun was shining, and the wind was gently blow us forward.
Our camping spot is across a swinging bridge. The bikes were transported across the bridge on our shoulders, and the bags one by one. A lovely spot.
Wow. Incredible. Supermountainweather!! Njoy, probably the best part with stunnings views of your bikingtrip..?!
Hi Yvon. Yes. The Pamir is certainly a highlight of the trip. Very beautiful!
Oh new theme. I only just noticed today when I looked on my laptop. Looks swish.
New theme? Not sure what you mean..
I just looked. WordPress has changed the way it shows blogs in the reader. My bad. Your blog theme hasn’t changed but WordPress has.
Ah. Does it look any good?
It looks awesome. But I like clean looks.
PS am loving your adventure. I think I’ll have to do the Pamir one day. Probably by motorbjke
Yes. There were lots of motor bike riders there.
