KKH Karakorum Highway

Kashgar to Islamabad by bicycle (a bit in bus where we have to) over the highest international pass in the world @4600m (Friendship Pass). Check out this post for more info on the highway.

End of April to mid May 2024. 1200km 20,000m. 3 to 4 big hills.

A German, A Irishman & A American Brit – all old mates from Shanghai where we live, decided it was about time to go on our yearly adventure and this is one part of the world we’ve always wanted to visit.

Many thanks to Specialized for the Bikes, Lululemon my off bike and cold weather gear, Coros for navigation and many other of the kind companies who lend us their equipment to test and play with. We could not do the adventure without them. Also thanks to Zhu, Qing and others who help gather info and who we could not adventure without.
