Story

I'M HERE AND ALREADY PEDDLING Vietnam to Cambodia for the Mines Advisory Group - a very worthy cause which clears land mines from war torn areas enabling the local people to have a safer world to live in.

If you would like to know how I am doing then please read on, I plan to keep this page updated as much as possible. Make sure you check out the photos :-).

START

30th January 2011 -  Striking an effeminate pose lol, see photo named ME. Competitiveness is forcing me to stay at the front and in constant go mode but I will slow down soon and take some more photos as it's is so amazingly beautiful here :)

This is Saigon (see photo) other wise known as ho chi min city, our start point. You will see some scooters in this picture which is very very common. Saigon homes 8.5 million people and 5 million scooters. You will also see Brian a nice chap who has cycled across Australia, so I'll be picking his brain about that :)

Carry on and view the photos.
