Hope you find someone to ride with.
If you've got lots of gps tracks for Laos is there any chance you can contribute / share some road & trip reports for Laos?
Many thanks in advance.

hello David,
Thanks for your answer .
I am not sure I put my message in the right chapter .If you think better to put in another place please let me knoW .
About my Lao last year tracks : It was the first time I used a Garmin 60 cs and was surprised a few time by the uploaded memory (so parts are missing)and when coming back at home it was also the first time I tried to exploit my tracks with a computer and I made some mistakes . So what realy I have saved at the moment is the Waypoints list I pickep up manualy from a 1/1000 000° map and which allowed us (two weeks with Jean -Louis Papaya spa down to Pakse + two weeks up to Hongsa ) to find the way but needs explainations .I am also able to show the Tacks( with Ozie expl.) on your map, but it does not fit truely together .
Now I am working with a Garmin 276 C with a very large memory and hope to show you nices tracks in a few monthes.
In a next message I try to insert a few pictures .
See you on the track one day .Paul.
