BARFistan 2017
Hey Barfers, hope everyone’s doing great on here! Hopefully those of you who were following "BARFistan 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016" recognized that it was a great opportunity to eliminate some of the misconceptions most have about the east. The project was not solely focused on Pakistan though, or even motorcycles as a matter of fact. It was about adventure, getting out of the safety cocoon and familiarity of a 9 to 5 lifestyle and braving a land that you’ve seen portrayed as a war-zone. I’ve become such a travel junkie and want to create more opportunities for you all to step outside of the hamster wheel, explore the hidden beauty of Pakistan’s many cultures, and have a life-changing experience (without breaking the bank and while having the best tour-guide you’ll ever have, me! {tho some might not agree, haha}). With 2017 Riding season just around the corner and BARFistan being wildly successful for the last 4 years, I’d like to host barfers again this summer.
I had some of my own travel plans for this year but life came in the way, so my personal travel plans have been postponed :thumbdown
However, that has given me the opportunity to have some of you jump over the pond and come ride the Himalayas with me here in Pakistan.
For 2017 I'd like to accommodate each and everyone one of you so I’ve created the tour dates below, but if you cannot make any of these and *really* want to come, email me at ADifferentAgenda@gmail.com and I’ll do my best to work with you. website is up and running if you'd like to read some more www.RideTheKKH.com
Budman has been helping me out with this and you've probably noticed sponsored banners running on BARF - Thanks BUD!
For every rider from BARF.. % will be donated to BARF because this is where friends become family and this place really has given me more than it has taken.
I’ve calculated the costs to be roughly $1250 per week.
The $1250 per week covers: Food/Meals - Motorcycle rental - Fuel for the entire journey - Motorcycle maintenance during the journey (oil changes/filters/fluids/plugs) - Support vehicle (you won't have to carry luggage on the bike with you) - Hotels (shared room) - Camping equipment - All toll and ferry charges - 2 helpers who will help you with everything from riding your motorcycle when you're tired to giving you a massage on top of the Himalayas..
Not included: - Your airfare (ranges from $800-$1200)- Visa fees (approx.. $120 for an American citizen) - Insurance costs (optional) - Bottled water (cheap!). You'll also have to pay for the parts if you crash your bike. The bike is about $1200 brand new so if you throw the bike off the mountain or total it, that’ll be the extent of your liability. Any other personal expenses you choose to incur (shopping, beer, wine, hookers, etc)
