Story
The time is quickly approaching where I'll strap on my gloves, jump, on the bike, and travel from one end of Vietnam to the other with a ragtag group of teachers, event promoters, salespeople, and more from all over the world (10 countries represented and counting).
Riding from Hanoi in the North to Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) in the South is about the same distance as cycling from Chicago to Miami, albeit in 90° heat and 90% humidity.
I've got no real cycling experience, and I'm hardly in any shape to brag about. Why am I going to put myself through such a strenuous experience? Because I'm hoping my trials and tribulations (which will be documented for the enjoyment of viewers at home) will bring some attention to the wonderful children in this developing nation.
