The proud owner of a new bike! Bought at the local market and kitted out with a rear wire tray, a totally hip basket and one of the comfiest seats I've had the pleasure of sitting on. The seat came about after I spent 10mins on the original one and was in pain. Sunday, I head out. Laos visa, check. Go to 'Sunny Internet Cafe' (along the river), email - choubchansamantha@yahoo.com, to get your visa done, $34 which is cheaper than the embassy. The ladies there are absolutely lovely and speak fluent English. I'm strapping my bags to the bike on Sunday and riding towards Kampong Cham in search of 'No More Monks Rock'. About 50km towards KC from PP. Will ride till tired, starting early, then hitch the rest of the way with my trusty phrase book. This shall be interesting.... Check back in on Tuesday to see how successful this was....Plan B - ride till too hot, ride when cool in the afternoon, by then I should get to the climbing spot. Too tired to go on, I will string up my hammock then climb in the morning = foolproof...Right? Now the fun begins :D
