Ride day 21: Kon Tum Loop

27 June 2016 We start early again for a second day of breakfast with our new friends; meeting up at the local cafe by the pond at 7:30am. There is a light shower of rain in the air, but considerably dryer than the previous day. After a delicious breakfast of banh mi, cakes and coffee, and […]

Ride day 20: Kon Plông to Kon Tum

25 June 2016 After a stormy and relatively cool night (coldest of our trip so far), we set about packing our bikes for the short ride through to Kon Tum. The roads were still fairly damp from the previous night’s storms, and a fair amount of debris in the corners. As we swung out of […]

Ride day 19: Quảng Ngãi to Kon Plông

24 June 2016 We woke fairly early in the noisy hotel in Quảng Ngãi and decide to pack up and head on towards the Central Highlands. As we get downstairs we find both of our bikes have been moved from where we were told to park them, for no particular good reason. We then have […]

Ride day 18: Hội An to Quảng Ngãi

23 June 2016 It’s time to say good bye to the excellent and friendly Flame Flowers Home Stay and move on south. A quick bite of breakfast in the home stay before we load up the bikes. Whilst loading up, we notice that a couple of our bungee cords are fraid. The hosts at the […]

Ride day 17: Lăng Cô to Hội An

18 June 2016 It’s a sad good bye to Lăng Cô and the beach resort which has been our home for nearly a week. We head along to the restaurant for one last breakfast before packing up and heading off. As we’re packing the bags, I notice my headset is slightly loose, so take a few […]

Ride day 16: Huế to Lăng Cô

12 June 2016 After a very chilled out and fun few days in Huế with Andy and Janice, it’s time to head down the road to Lăng Cô. We join Andy and Janice for our usual breakfast in the hotel, and then pack up in time for their car arriving at 10 a.m. We load up all […]
