Simon and Todd started their journey from Australia in March to ride around
the world on motorbikes.

This is Simon with a smile, he just got one step further to Russia for shipping.
I helped them to do that procedure and I didn't know how difficult it is.....!!

and I will announce emphatically.....
If you are planning to ride around the world with motorbike, you need prepare lots of documents such as....

*Copies of visa and passport
*Registration book for motorbike
*International driver's license
*Inspection certificate
*Route map
*Inquiry form
*Detail for motorbike (form)

Also, ferry company ask them to apply for clearing corporation to do some paper works and insurance require...etc,
The clearing corporation spoke only Russian.
And that it cost 30,000yen each person!
But they eventually did it by themselves after lots of difficulties all the way.
