ABOUT THE ROAD:

On gravel sections (about 60% of the total distance) the route can be demanding. These are mostly new tracks, leading through the hitherto inaccessible passes. They can often be flooded by the streams. There will also be a lot of hairpines. The asphalt sections, in turn, will require a lot of attention due to traffic. High altitude can affect the concentration and handling ability of motorcycles.
