Biking in Vietnam
Hi there,
I also motorbiked in northern Vietnam and will go to Cambodia this winter.
I rented a Honda Baja 250cc in Hanoi, basically apart from Minsk, that was the only bike I found. The rest were just scooters and similar.
Though old the bike was ok and I did a 2 up tour of nothern part until Sapa.
Couldn't find seats on the train to go back to Hanoi so woke up at 5 am and drove all day Sapa to Hanoi... best day of the trip!
Roads are not bad around Hanoi while not paved in the mountains. The route is cool, you go up and down the hills and see different ethnicity each valley.
Let me know if you need the name/adress of the rental shop where I took the bike and more info about the route. I don't think they have organized tours, but you can ask a guy to join you with another bike, no problem for that ... in Vietnam you'll always find somebody ready to help you...not for free but... you know...
Cheers
