About this episode
The episode recounts the family's challenging cycling journey along the Pamir Highway, highlighting their experiences and encounters.
Cycling along the legendary Pamir Highway was a huge test for us as a family. We had everything from close encounters of the very fast kind with the Silk Road Mountain Race, to altitude sickness and food poisoning. Along the way we found new friends and tested the limits of what is possible (or at least sensible) for a family to do on their bikes.
