Kon Tum - Mang Den (65km, 1500m climbing, 30% off-road)
Today we made full use of our mountain bikes! We awoke in the beautiful town of Kon Tum and visited the famous wooden church and a traditional thatched communal house before setting off. The morning was spent riding on buffalo trails and was a real test of mental and physical biking skills. If you like cycling through mud, sand, water and rocks you would love this day! A unique experience coordinated so well by Mr Biker. At lunch we swam in the river to cool off, washed down our bikes and then hit the long road climb up to Mang Den, surrounded by pine trees. The day finished with another beautiful waterfall, which Emma, Georges and Robin couldn't resist swimming under. Another highlight of the day was an outstanding photobomb from Horacio (see below). We climbed and impressive 1500m and there was a mix of exhaustion and elation by the end of the day.
Here are some highlights:
