5 - Northern Iran

Riding through the first small town was just a small taster of what is to come. Cars cut in front, pull out without warning, no indication, no lights, no junctions, nothing, nothing, nothing. On the positive side, the price of petrol was only 3p per litre!

We always drew a crowd – our BMW was not a regular sight in Iran. Apparently, they banned bikes over 250cc some years ago.
