We've cycled the Pamir Highway

We've spent the last 5 weeks cycling around Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan in Central Asia. They're amazing countries - sort of a cross between Mongolia/Nepal and Afghanistan. Yurts everywhere in Kyrgyzstan and not much at all in Tajikistan.




We'd read about some roads that are worth cycling and the Pamir stood out - there's also the Karakoram highway and the Friendship Highway in Tibet but this looked really exciting - 750km long, camp where you want, nobody lives there and mostly above 4000m!
