Koh Rong is a nice tiny island south of Cambodia. It's good for diving, snorkeling, chilling, especially for chilling. Most bars have a good selection of enhanced brownies and cookies :)

Bike troubles

Towing my bike (broken accelerator cable)
In the end it was a good decision to buy old Honda Win motorbikes. Not because they are very durable (they aren't). They are cheap and spare parts are available everywhere in south east asia. Commons problems where chains which came off frequently and some sparks which had to be replaced.
My bike had some big troubles with its carburator caused by some dirty gas I bought somewhere on the street.

Four people fixing my bike (Vientiane)
Simon lost his exhaust pipe, because of the lack of inert gas welding equipment in Lao, he bought a chinese rip off. It didn't really fit, so he lost it again. But this time we found someone with good equipment who crafted a fixture.

Motorbike driving in south east asia
Posted Sun, 07 Oct 2012 21:17:37 GMT Traveling Lao Cambodia
Simon bought three Honda Win motorbikes for our motorbike trip. During his 6 month internship in Hanoi he learned how to ride a motorbike. I made a motorbike driving license some years ago, but did never ride the bike since then. And Achim was riding a motorbike for the first time in Hanoi :) Simon and I tried to teach him what we knew, he learned it really fast and two days after his first attempts we started our tour.

The mountains in lao are perfect for motorbike tours, there's nobody on the road and thousands of curves!
