I found this place, a collection of old containers being used as a flourishing and general Market place (I think it was mentioned on the HUBB) by accident. I was wandering about looking lost and a bloke selling power tools forcibly sat me down and gave me a cuppa. He then took it on himself to sort me out riding pillion as we queried (car) mechanic after mechanic though even with his help we could only confirm that there are zero bike mechanics in the whole of KGZ.

Some car mechanic wasters want to fleece me to do heaven knows what (without any of the right parts) so I welcome any advice on leaking fork seals and the liklihood of surviving 2wks travel through the mntns to the next capital, Dushanbe.
