Moto Pro

Ever since I arrived in Bangkok I’ve been wanting to try piloting a motobike/motorcycle. SE Asia is perfect for a first crack at it. Cheap and no need for a special license (or any license for that matter). Finally, today was the day. Joee offered to coach me through my first moto-driving session. Turns out, I didn’t need much coaching. It took me about 5 minutes to get the semi-manual ride under control. We spent the day just cruising around Vang Vieng and the surrounding area with a French girl and a Spanish guy, stopping to take in the scenery, explore a cave, take a dip in the river and feast on a mulberry shake at the local organic farm. So yes, I am now a moto pro! ; )
