Very interesting trip, great pictures.

VALUE FOR MONEY?
• Only if your testosterone makes you insist on riding your own bike & money’s not a problem.
• But consider if you ride from Chiang Mai it is at least 3 days to the border & back again = “1 week” is gone; & you’re not even in Vietnam. So…

So...... What did it cost? That would be interesting info. I missed that part.

Hi David,

Many thanks for, as always, all the useful info.

We (two couples) also decided to travel through Asia on motorbikes (yamaha Nouvo Elegance 135) which we bought & slightly customised in Chiang Mai. This was an unexpected decision and there was a lot of gear change/improvements & logistics to work on but we somehow manage to get through it event though sometimes feels like impossible - like to a question asked in Myanmar: "Is it possible? Yes it's impossible."

We'll are reporting on border crossings here: http://www.tripcolor.com/user/7405/t...d-8222fb2962e3
So far, Thailand to Malaysia which was a bit painful in terms of obtaining information what to do & where (this blog allows limited number of characters hence anyone PM me for more detailed info on how to get through this border on 2 wheels).

All the best, David
