Relieved to see some sorely missed sweeping generalisations in there Matty! Glad to hear you guys are riding strong, though not sure about all these soft sleeper busses you mention. Good to see the red jersey is getting a good workout, though may need a wash before the ladies arrive...

Housemates Rebuttal - From: The flats had to happen
To be fair, as an ex-housemate, I wasn't too concerned for your safety (although I would be hesitant to grab on to the back of trucks myself), I was more so concerned for your parents reactions, which correct me if I'm wrong, my predictions were on the money.

HEAVY - From: Kit List
Merci pour toutes ces informations que je t'avais demandées. Agnes m'avait signalé ta réponse, mais je n'avais pas encore l'habitude du blog. C'est incroyable tout ce que tu portes! C'est vrai qu'il faut un minimum de confort sur de telles distances. La difficulté est de trouver le meilleur compromis entre le poids et l'effort. c'est la même chose pour le 'touring ski''que je pratique. en 7 années de compétitions, le poids des équipements indispensables a été divisé par 2 ( moins d'accessoires, matériel constamment allégé et réduit en taille, chaussures, ski, sac en matériaux plus légés etc.. Ta 'bike' semble lourde ? poids ? pneus larges, sur les routes asphaltée ce doit être un handicap, mais ensuite en montagne ce sera peut-être un avantage. Bravo pour tous tes efforts, vas-y ''poupou'' comme disaient les Français en voyant passer Raymond Poulidor, un ex champion cycliste du tour de France très sympathique. Il neige encore dans le nord de la France aujourd'hui 7 avril. ici tout va bien. Vitor enchanté de son séjour chez ta maman. Il veut y retourner. A bientôt Patrick

I am glad you felt quite "at home" in Vientiane with its French influence and pain au chocolat ( you remember the gouter at home ) and a replica ( bad copy in fact!) of l'Arc de Triomphe in Paris. We saw one in Delhi near the presidential palace and a mini tour Eiffel in Prague. Good continuation. Take care and thank for all those blogs, a great read...

glad to hear your have met Frenchies and are practising your French. You won't be losing your fluency " on the road"... I have just discovered the slide show icon on the top right hand side and we have been able to view your very good photos in big! Thanks a lot. They are amazing and give a good "flavour " of the country. It is good you have been staying at a homestay. Love Maman

thank you for sharing your impressions with us. the photos are great, so nice and it is fun to read your impressions, a nice way of following week by week in your great adventure. Thank you so much. great pleasure each time + your weekly phone calls, texts ... I am impressed by the 65 year old cyclist couple touring Thailand while their son is travelling the region. May be a thought for us, meeting you somewhere but where ?

such a lot to carry and drag along the top of a mountain, at 1500m in very hot temperature.

Good luck! - From: Mountain Man
Wow, great to hear about your trip and jealous that you're getting to see so many interesting places (although I don't think I could manage all that biking up hills!). Good luck with the rest of the trip, am looking forward to reading all about it.

I still can't believe you're doing it - From: On the Road
Beany, This epic undertaking puts Warrick and my journey from London to Munich to shame. I still cannot fathom you're actually going to use you're own power to get from Bangkok to Delhi through some very inhospitable cycling country.. Enjoy the hotels where you can and keep up the blog.. It's a great read....

Inspirational journey - From: On the Road
Prompted by your example I got on my bike to fetch the newspaper,a journey of only 1/4 mile but involving a steep hill! While you endure high temperatures & gratuitous banana vendors,I only had to contend with snow flurries and potholes but my modest exertions put into perspective the challenge you have embarked upon. Jane & I look forward to accompanying you vicariously thanks to your excellent 'blog'

more gear? - From: Impressions of Bangkok
More gear Matt? Remeber pack light!! It is hot here, varies from 25 to 30 day to night. Hoping the highlands of thialand/loas are going to get cold or else i will have carried some warm gear (that i could have got you to bring) for nothing. Glad to hear training is 'on program'
