Highlights from Afghanistan Pt. 2 (since the last post blew up) 🇦🇫

I didn’t expect the last post the blow up, so here’s more highlights plus some answers to your questions. We spent a total of 30 days crossing remote central Afghanistan, almost completely on dirt roads. We took the route that Max Roving pioneered over a year ago. After confirming this online and with the local Taliban authorities, I am pretty confident in saying we are the third person or group to ever bikepack this route (at least that’s documented). We specifically passed through Hazara majority regions the majority of our time in the country, so we got a very rare glimpse into a historically oppressed and anti Taliban side of the country. It was absolutely the hardest tour of my life, mentally and physically, but one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I’ll be coming out with a much more detailed trip report soon, and in the meantime you can follow me at @liamtheimpaler on all socials. I got a ridiculous amount of photos and videos from this trip, let me know if you want to see more!
