Yep..I think maybe some of the reports you never hear about are the guys that pay the border officials off with a bit too much money to get their way. Unfortunately that can create issues for other people trying to cross. A Khymer biker acquaintance in Phnom Penh has allegedly taken several bikes across at the unofficial border where the Vietnamese/Khymers only cross. I think one could maybe pay some money to get a bike over there and then pick it up later to ride but that is somewhat risky as you might lose the bike all together if something happens later on and you do not have paperwork to declare you brought it over. Also a bit of a hassle. Anyway I was rather disappointed for not getting across as I was set on riding my bike through Vietnam
Well hopefully I can get another attempt!
