Cycling Laos

Laos is one country that has been missed by many cyclists during their tour of Asia. We were fortunate to do some riding there during a cycling tour of Isan Thailand and hope to do more cycling there in future. For the moment, we just manage to cover a bit of Vientiane and Luang Prabang.
