Absolutely! It was so hard to stay focused on where you wanted to go , rather than where you DIDN’T want to go. The pass was so rutted you were wiggling along the narrow path. I don’t think I’ve ever been so grateful to see tarmac in my life 😂
Hey there! I really enjoyed watching your videos. Great info. Could you please let me know where to take the shortcut for the bamboo raft ? Really appreciate.
Thanks so much. The adventure was amazing and the videos took ages to edit so I’m glad you enjoyed them and found it helpful. The bamboo raft is on the DT217 crossing from Cao Bang into Ha Giang. You cross the song nho que river. Hope this helps .
So excited to do this bit in April! Although we'll be on two smaller bikes which should help a bit haha :). How long would you say it took you to ride the DT217 ? I'm praying for good weather :)
Have fun! It’s depends on weather and how busy the roads are etc. the dr217 is a long road so in total we probably did it over a few days. We were on bigger bikes, had good weather and made the occasional stop to take photos etc. what we did was roughly estimate around 120-140km a day with time to stop etc. that’s how we roughly worked out where we wanted to be each day.
Omg , that road after the raft crossing WAS INSANE!!!!
