Thanks, Nima. Can't wait. I've been dreaming of riding Iran since my youth, when I read an amazing account by Robert Byron about some half-crazed architecture students who drove a wood-burning car from London to "Persia" in the 1930s. Not sure if you know the book, or how it's regarded in Iran, but it left me with a really deep and positive impression, and I've wanted to visit ever since.

I suspect we have a lot more in common than just motorcycles...

cheers!
