To Minsk or not to Minsk
Hi,
My name is Jo. I am currently living and working in Vietnam. I have never owned a bike, and only have a bit of Asian riding experience. I wont pretend that I know anything about bikes or what to look for in a machine that will hopefully take me anywhere I want to go. Ultimately I would like to ride from London to Cape Town.
Minsks are everywhere in northern Vietnam. Apart from being stinky smokey things, they appear to be very very fixable, tough and, here at least, cheap.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am really looking at setting up a bike that would be easy to ride (beginner, have my licence) maintain and just keeps on going! Any idea of budget for setting myself up with all gear would be great too.
Ta Much
