    Hi Guys,

    i am working on our next trip in China on our mighty Chang's !
    This time i am thinking of something in the Chinese Gobi part.

    I remember the German Changchun guys doing it years ago but haven't find anything else.

    I was thinking starting in Baotou driving West only the Mongolia border, passing the Gobi and then south to Dunhuang.

    Any ideas ? Suggestions ?

    Our guidelines are as usual simple : bad roads, camping and destroying our bikes as much we can !

    Dunhuang is not a bad place to chill out for a while but that's really where the adventure starts to begin! Everything south and west of there is worth checking out.

    HI,

    thanks for the feedback.
    In fact we are modifying the itinerary and as you advised starting more south-west !
    We are now talking about Hotan to Dunhuang (or more).

    Any good (off) roads to advise ?

    Thanks
