Biking in Hoi An, Vietnam

March 8, 2014 at 9:08 am  •  Posted in Sports, Vietnam by

If there were to be a new extreme sport then it should be biking in Vietnam. Even biking to the market and getting a coconut gives you an immense adrenaline rush. Wescott, Yve, and I became experts at biking around, even to the point that we could confidently throw Tuck or Jones on the back for  a ride around town. Biking just made Hoi An that much better and provided us with an efficient and local transportation option.

We need some bikes like these back on Mercer Island!

    It seems like all the bikes we rode in Asia had that cool padded “passenger seat” on back complete with fold-out foot rests! I have been wondering too why we don’t see these at home! We could do away with school buses all together!

    Is there a story to go with the medical treatment? I hope it is not anything serious!
