After the Highway, we heading to Gia Bac mountain pass.
This Gia Bac pass is the old trail (national road No.28) connecting Di Linh highland with Phan Thiet, the seaside city.
Total length of the connection was known as 97km.
Total of twisty mountain pass most likely about 50-70km.
It is always fun and exciting when riding here.
I have experienced both riding and driving thru this pass, but the feeling of riding with several bends is much much more excited.

Reach Gia Bac pass, I was not so confident on my new hand gloves (they r new, and quite hard) then I didn't dare to take foto...

There are some photos taken from previous riding trip, while still using the old hand gloves, just bring here to share some feeling...

The donation amount is not much, but we hope we could do something, we believe some of our small contribution would somehow help the people now having no where to sleep, nothing to eat...

Cont'd....

This time, passing the Gia Bac pass, I just got the below photos, hic, due to the gloves issue... hic...

You can see the upper road, with the hard stoppers... just behind be, it was a very short and immediate bend.

My bike, she was so cool on the twisty road...

Hayza....

We stopped for a while, took photos and chit chat a bit... the next group still far... We kept continue riding...

IMG_6536.jpg


IMG_6538.jpg


Now we can easily feel the dry season is here. Plants had changed their color.... not green any more...

IMG_6539.jpg


All the bends now became simple and boring...

See the color:

The forest is now afraid of any naked fire...

We stopped at a street inn, drank sugar cane water, and wait for the following groups. It was about 10km to the sea.

After some mins, all team gathered, all safe, all took drinks, and continued moving to Mui Ne.

Arriving at Mui Ne:
