“Those who travel the road know it is hard
Scale one mountain and another appears
But once you mount the highest peak
10,000 miles appear before your eyes”
‘En Route’
Ho Chi Minh Prison Diaries
There were four of us on our 8-day border crawl accompanied by our
guide/mechanic. Our age range was late 20’s to 60; our motorbiking experience ranged from competent to beginner.
Throughout the trip we were well cared for in all facets of road travel, with gourmet picnic lunches an unexpected feature. The bikes were well prepared and performed heroically. The route was well chosen to provide some faster main-road passages along with challenging off-road sections. The whole experience was enjoyable.
The superb organisation of Explore Indochina is a credit to those involved.
