People, please please please remove any garbage that you create. ...We went through a few additional garbage bags ourselves just cleaning up the trash that fellow ralliers left in their wake. I think the event organizers should encourage this type of behavior more than they do presently." Agreed. I'll see what I can do! Great stuff guys, good work.

Gas can be paid by credit card until Romania or so, so that's what we did to conserve gas. After that gas prices drop quite a bit. Your car is small, and won't take much. We didn't keep track, but it was maybe $500 after Europe? There are always a few teams that go through Russia and get there quick--it's all paved and not very interesting. Not recommended.

I found your tips really helpful so thanks! I was wondering though, if you could give me an estimate on how much you actually spent on gas? Also, do you know anyone who took the 'high road' and drove through Russia/Siberia and dropped into Mongolia from the north? Hi, my buddy and I are down to do the rally in July 2011.

Then on to Hovd. As you leave the center of Hovd province, (aimag) there is 145 Km till the next town of Zereg. Many cars stop for help here because the road is so bad along this stretch. I recommend not stopping there. There are a bunch of ruffians there who chased us out of town last year. They wanted us to pay 100 dollars for a little weld job that would have cost less than 2 pounds. I heard from others that there have been other problems there before. They try to do what every they can to get your car from you. If you must stop stay away from groups of men as they are normally drunk and could be dangerous. lost As you enter into Mongolia from Russia you come into a province called bayan ulgii.
