Yazd - Kashan - Teheran - Qazvin

After 5 hours drive from Yazd (130 km only .......) in the middle of the desert, we stop at the same time as a big truck driven by Ali who offeres us to give us a lift to Kashan. We accept and load the motorcycle on his huge truck (only 3 men and I !). After 15 minutes, he stops for a 2 hours break to have pic-nic and to smoke some opium he had left under a stone somewhere .............
Finally at 10PM we arrive in Kashan. The following day, I visit Kashan on my own while Laurent drives alone to Qom (to keep the motorcycly light). I take the bus the day after to Teheran then straight to Qazvin where I meet Laurent again.
The following day is the best so far ! 11 hours on the bike in the middle of wonderful scenaries ! Marvellous !
But yesterday, after 1 hour drive we stop again and we have again to load the motorbike on a pick-up .... We are lucky again and meet a great guy who take us to his home in Tabriz and find a good mecanic for us ... it seems now it was an electronic problem ??!! We plan to leave tomorrow again and be at the border tomorrow night .....

Sorry for the short news, I'll give your more funny details soon !
Love
Alex
