This thread was buried in the 24 hr Endurance Race Forum (I'd didn't even know there was such a forum) It definitely needs to be moved in here. Go to the link provided in the quote. The pictures are absolutely incredible.

Hey all,
As a first posting, I would like to tell you about my last mountainbike trip, a quite adventurous trip on the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal. This is a trekking area with steep climbs and technical downhills. But we did it by bike in 17 days with temperatures between +40° and -15° and a maximum altitude of 5400m. One day you are on a dirt road, next day in the middle of a snow storm, next day climbing and descending into a sand storm. Life can be very beautiful...
