Hi John!

Thanks a lot for the hospitality and for being such a great guide of Vietnam! It's a great and fun trail system you have there as there is everything for everybody from xc to freeride (with chicken pass). I can only wish to have such a network in my backyard one day. Congrats and thanks to all the people involved in building and maintaining Vietnam.

J'adore cette photo!!

On voit encore la poussière qui n'a pas finis de retomber, contrairement à Rick!

Un peu plus loin et il se la pêtait solide avec les roches qui dépasses!

Comment va le poignet?
