ok, so the cycling trip is finally over. we can put our bikes away, shave our faces, and sleep in. it feels amazing to have completed the 1300 mile journey. it was the hardest thing i have ever accomplished. the last week i think was the most difficult. life on the road was beginning to takes its toll on the groups moral, and starting to chip away at my sanity. waking early everyday and packing the vans, finding something decent to eat, and finding a hotel in every new town, were the most taxing aspects of the trip. by the end the cycling was the easy part, it took no mental energy, just pedal, pedal, pedal. i can do that. opon ariving in saigon our group was welcomed by friends with junk food and cold beer at the palace gates. we spent the next two days partying and eating delicious food. im glad the trip is over. im glad i took part in this ride. im glad i got to meet all the great people involved and see parts of the country that were well off the tourist track. and of course im glad that with the help of my friends and family H2H was able to raise $35,000 for charities im vietnam. thank you everyone who helped make this possible.
