– by far the furthest I’ve cycled in a day.I used the Gizi 1:2,000,000 geographical map of Mongolia. I know that is a bit cheesy but seriously, we have met so many people at all stages of life who sell off their possessions and go travelling. In mid November the snow reached me 15km from Tsogt-Ovoo. Last week a friend of us died….he was 54.Such a wonderful journey!!! However we are still very passionate to go for trip around Mongolia we are very unsure whether it could be done with a baby… any suggestions how to travel with the little babies?pls:-)Thanks for the sharing. I was so far away from my own loved ones.Maybe it was the combination of this, the overwhelming hospitality, and the spontaneous, haunting, passionate singing that sprung up as the day drew to a close that caused me, unnoticed in my little corner of the room, to burst into tears of joy – joy, after weeks of living in my own head, at this intense expression of human spirit in the lost depths of the steppe.I am aware that this probably sounds incredibly corny.Isn’t it fantastic? Greetings from Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia!I have a seasonal job in Alaska, and so I travel 6 months of the year. Authorized distributor of Trek bikes. 24K likes. Before long it started snowing pretty hard in UB, but a few days later we did a van tour to Kharkorin etc and it was fine there (but cold). However it was still rideable, just slower, with the MTB wheels sinking into snow over sand. I heard from others that it was very snowy in the north (near the Reindeer people) and West (by the mountains). After a couple of weeks Andy and I decided that there must be more to Mongolia than riding bumpy jeep-tracks across endless plains and hills, so we very deliberately set out into the Khovsgol protected area on the most insignificant-looking track on the map.This turned out to be a rather rough hiking single-track, so we did a fair amount of pushing!We took enough food for a couple of weeks – noodles and biscuits don’t take up much space – and for several days we were travelling alongside the second-biggest freshwater reserve in Asia, Lake Khovsgol, whose water is famously ready-to-drink.It was still almost completely frozen over from the winter and acted as a giant refrigerator for the local climate, but it was a stunning backdrop to several days of care-free journeying through the beautiful alpine landscape, and provided a few very refreshing swims in the ice-free pools by the shore!
I left UB at the start of November and headed South towards Dalanzadgad. When we were able to pedal, we were managing 40 or 50km per day, riding fairly consistently throughout the day. That was a great story. Sounds like a great place to live.Im 68 ,now im stuck ,toomuch baggage (house& material things).

It was fine (and cold). There are seemingly no fewer herders or towns in the more remote areas, but they might be a bit more surprised to see you!What that all means in practice is that navigation has to be approached differently – forget trying to find an ‘exact route’ from A to B. Leaving Ulaan Baatar for the west, I found myself crossing huge expanses of pastured, hilly grassland (steppe), climbing long, flowing valleys with the fragrance of wild thyme in the air, and crossing tiny streams and fast-flowing rivers.The views were vast and spectacular, but there was always a ger (yurt) or two in sight; herds and their owners were permanently draped across the hillsides, and a small town popped up every day or two at which I could stock up on noodles and snacks and eat a big plate of dumplings.Each day I would speak to a few herders on motorbike or horseback as they passed by, checking my directions and explaining how my ‘Extrawheel’ trailer worked! What do you think ?Hi Matt, if I can use a cliche – go for it! By submitting this form, you consent to sending the above information to Trek Bicycle, which will be stored in the United States. Four things I’m glad I had were front suspension forks, disc-brakes, a single-wheel trailer rather than front panniers, and wide tyres (Marathon XR 2.25’s). Cycling across Mongolia has been a long-held dream for mountain biker and adventurer Tom Allen. Settlements were accurate, roads less so – any ‘road’ or track on this map generally signifies that you could probably go that kind-of way if you wanted to! we planned to go for it in February 2011 but baby comes along and our plans have to be changed. It tastes a lot better than it sounds.As I progressed north-west the landscape gradually became more alpine and forested, until the end of the trip in the northernmost part of Mongolia, on the fringe of Siberia, where I was surrounded by valleys of pine and larch and 3,000+ metre peaks, and the tea came without salt. Basic navigational concepts were all we needed – following a river downstream is a pretty safe bet for exiting a mountain range.Our previous experience in the country suggested that people would never be far away.
