You should go back mate – no-one I know who has been back has regretted it. There is not much left of Nui Dat – there are houses along the old airfield and crops on SAS hill. The Horseshoe is a quarry and is nearly unrecognisable. Vung Tau has been developed into a coastal resort – we stayed at the rebuilt Grand Hotel (it was all a bit different to the old Grand Hotel where we drank on R&C in 1970). The food is fabulous, the people are friendly and it's very cheap.

I was there 69/70 at Nui Dat and never have had the desire to return, but this event has changed my mind……..

Well done, I've been enjoying the images and tales. I'd never had Vietnam as a cycling destination but that's been the delight of reading your blog. Vietnam it has the right ingredients of warm weather, hills and more. Sitting in the middle of Europe's coldest weather since 1963, I'm jealous but the great photos brought some sensation of those warm, humid conditions.

Loved reading about your trip – I was sat in an office in cold and grey UK, waiting for the weather to warm up and the cycling to start, it was the perfect antidote!

Wade this was a great set of posts – your relaxed style is great to read while slogging away at work. Love the pictures.

100 x more interesting than your average debate about beach road lane closures or commuting!
