happily arriving in bishkek for a dreamful and confortable week before heading towards karakol and then the tien shian range for a kind of trekking by bike

starting with the 5th puncture in a day heading towards narin where i by chance met romain. he brings me on a small track along the chinise border before heading for the arpa valley without any road

after a few extrem days we find the nomads again and the way out of arpa valley as we couldn't find the pass we were looking for. the last picture is the road to kashgar
