That's gonna hurt. But it'll be amazing. As long as you can read a map better than we could on the bikes at Vang Vieng, and so long as your chain is better than the one in Ayuttaya, and as long as you don't try to fix that chain by going for a one-man mud wrestle in the river, it should be fun! Seriously wish we could come along... I think you've got Hugh's mind ticking over as well. Keep a video diary! I absolutely need to see how this goes. Ow. That’s gonna hurt.

Holiday is up soon with a visit to Malaysia. :-) Too bad our travel schedules do not permit a meeting... Eva and I will be in Penang May 28-Apr 1. Although the conditions are harsh, I think it's pretty doable to make the ride by bicycle. However, make sure you know how you keep your bicycle running. Rust, friction, leaks and loose parts will be your biggest enemy. 80KM a day would be reasonable to travel, as long your not going over a bunch of hills and dirt tracks. So 1 month is a good guess if you keep moving. :-) One thing is sure, you will definitely get a chicken-butt by the time you arrive at your daily destination. No matter how you sit down or stand, it'll still hurt. :-D Apart from being locked inside an office with great weather outside, I’m doing great!
