They've arrived in Novosibirsk. They rode 330 km today and are staying at a luxury hotel where some of the people are speaking English. It's Russia's third largest city with about 1.5 million inhabitants and is somewhat Western to see. There aren't many tourists.

Tomorrow they'll try and find new front tires and hopefully buy a better map of Mongolia.

Remember to visit Sverrir's blog to see pictures from the trip.
