Cut the ride times down to 6 hrs a day on demanding tours so you can see more and rest up between days as most of us were in bed straight after dinner.
Firstly, a well organised trip and everything went to plan, so very well done to VR for that :-)
Luggage -
I read the travel guide from VR and purchased a duffle bag especially for the trip. I was annoyed then that 9 others in the group had luggage from hard case suitcases and hard cased carry on to wheeled duffle bags (both of which I already had). No penalty for them breaking the rules? Our soft bags mostly ended up under their hard luggage on the bus - not fair.
Language -
With the best will in the world, mixing 3 non French speaking with 9 French speaking just doesn't work. We just didn't know what was being said and it led to segmentation within the group. This was disappointing as it meant we struggled to make friends or casual conversation with most of the group.
Videos/photos -
I expected that VR would put a video together of our ride, I was disappointed when I realised any videos were up to us. I would have been prepared to pay for such a video/album. We didn't do enough group photos.
Our trip was amazing just because I have never thought to be part of Nomads life. spending everyday in a different way with everyone was incredible.
The land, the nature, sleeping in the Mongolian yurt and go peeing outside during the night was very special!!!
I keep with me all the beautiful smiles for my art work and my heart.
next time make sure that the people brings a jacket for the evening (it was cold);
thank you so much.
I really loved the trip! It was just a great advernture with good people in a marvellous scenery. I highly recommend this tour. But only as rider. I think for a Pilon this will be a pain in the ass ^^. But I cannot judge, is just my opinion. The only negativ point I have is the accident we had. I think someone with the riding experience of Alexander should not be allowed to go on such a tour. I discussed quite a while about joining or not, due I had no offroad experience. But I had ad least 15 years riding experience. Thats it. Keept going like this. I am looking forward to join another tour in the future.

Vintage Rides is a very well organised motorbike trip.An unforgettable experience.We will definitely be booking another motorbike tour with you in the future.
I'm always up for a challenge and this ride really gave me one. Both physically and mentally.
At times did feel a little rushed and there was more hours riding than we all anticipated. Maybe this tour needs another day or less miles.
But at the end of the day all in all I really enjoyed it and glad I did it. Not ,many people can lay claim to riding these roads.
