Re: Border crossing Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan (Isfara-Batken)
Boney. Biking from Osh and to Tajikistan is not an issue at all. Did it last week. There is a check point 100km from Osh where you will be guided to an unfinished but smooth dirt road to the left.

Re: GBAO current situation
Definitely a NO on the GBAO in Bishkek, Kyrgysztan. Rang this morning to check. Lady does said maybe 2 weeks but has no clue either. She said we have to go to Dushanbe to get it.

Visa took 20 minutes to get here. ...
