    I looked at pictures, but much time has passed and much has changed.

    It was river Kuanda, I used the rail bridge. It is about 200 m long, it is guarded by a security, but I did that night.

    Way from Vitim to Tynda

    middle point west side of Bam Road

    Thanks Vasar , will continue to follow this awesome RR. That was some "getoff'" there . Were you able to protect your back and lift that bike back on two wheels without unloading all your gear?

    Your panniers are holding up well after tipovers like that.

    If you're referring to the pic below, it looks like a snapshot from a video to me. Maybe a GoPro on a tripod? Which means he probably rode that bridge multiple times. :evil

    I fell several times, it is difficult in deep water.

    He helped me, in the night people are more kindly .... In fact, the night trains moving on lesser, it is safer, I was there in the evening anyway.

    You have a right, it is snapshot from video.

    hi, RoninMoto, I was in Georgia 2011, a very beautiful country and wonderful people, I have very good memories.
