Yeah, I'll practice a little on the side roads. I just got my car driving license a couple months ago and I've never driven stick so I don't think I'm ready for a motorbike in Vietnam but I wish to slowly learn because it's so much fun and we could do so much more if only we had 2 bikes! There are some seriously impressive mountains up north but I think we'll skip out because:

1. the bike probably won't make it up the hills with us both + our bags

2. we have no more space for extra fuel, tools and food on the bike

3. it would be dumb to go without an extra bike to tow you out in case something happens

Yeah, got a helmet mount for our fake GoPro :) I've been more cautious since some fuckers tried to snatch my purse off me, but that a whole 'nuther story. I wish I had the reflex to elbow the guy in the face.
