Want to Cycle Across the Pamir Highway? Listen to this. Olly Hargreaves

December 02, 2025 • Bella Molloy • Season 3

Dreaming of an adventure that takes you across the Pamir Highway? Listen to Olly Hargreaves share what it's actually like to cycle across them.

Olly is currently on a huge bike journey from the UK to Thailand. 40 Years ago his dad took a similar tour, and what is special is that he joined Olly for this section of the journey. It was certainly an adventure/mis-adventure, with bad roads, equipment failures and sickness all making an appearance.

You can follow Olly's journey via his instagram page - @sagas.of_Olly.Hargreaves
