  Great work Jay!
  Did you get the braze ons added to the fork or were they THAT forward thinking at Fat Chance?

  Away in a very different time zone riding a motorised two-wheeler thinking this will all blow over, but now wanna chime in after reading your latest assessment @Velocio, or more personal, Dee.
  I also want to extend my sincerest gratitude for this incredible place you've facilitated through immense effort. Having had time to think it over, I would be at peace for this to end, despite being such a large part of my life for the last +-15 years including lurking. And I wholeheartedly understand you making this decision with the intense past behind you and us. And as I have come to understand, on your personal journey, intense future ahead.
  My best wishes internet stranger bossman!

  As others said, get the maximera ones. They do specific ones/fronts for inside drawers/cupboards. Easy enough to DIY too, but #buyers will be #buyers

  ...oofff. very pretty! Will do a similar boat tour from Cat Ba when I get there.
  Made it to Cao Bang in the dark with sketchy night riding after the waterfall. Wasn't all that, but the "frontier road" from Bao Lac there was worth it!
  So many pictures, will do a quick upload. Amazing country. Often very nice people! Happy water aplenty!

  I'm new to a motorised two-wheeler actually. Only got my licence mid October (...at 37) but getting the miles and practice in here! And the wee tumbles. Better on a cheap rental than my own.

  Saw and spoke to several people on bikes on the Ha Giang Loop and met an Irish guy in Son La and his father accompanying him in Vietnam. He has cycled from Ireland to India, then plane to Japan, then Korea, China and now Vietnam going to Laos and Cambodia next. Mental!
  He would've done it all by land, but you can't go through Myanmar currently.
