Hai Van Pass
Different bike, different continent. Booked the flight, now I need to learn how to ride a scooter properly.
NOTE Hanoi → Hoi An. Renting whatever they'll let me rent.
The Atlas is what I know. This is what I'm chasing. Routes promoted from here graduate to the Atlas. Eventually.

Forty-eight hairpins on one side. The motorcycle equivalent of a rite of passage.
NOTE Combine with Gavia + Mortirolo for a proper three-pass weekend.
Top Gear called it the best road in the world. They were probably right.
NOTE Need a proper week, two-up unfriendly, can't be rushed.
I want to ride one of the Tour de France climbs on something with an engine. Pure ego.
NOTE Best paired with Lautaret and Croix de Fer.
Empty roads. Weather that punishes you. Single-track tarmac through nothing. Sounds like paradise.
NOTE Ferry from Hoek van Holland, then push north fast.
James Bond shot Goldfinger here. Every rider with a camera wants the same photo. I am no different.
NOTE Pair with Grimsel and Susten for the classic triple.
Twenty-six switchbacks down to a dead-end cove. You ride them, then you ride them again.
NOTE Fly + rent. Don't go in July.
Eleven hairpins, vertical cliffs, waterfalls. Booked a flight to see it as a passenger once. Need to go back.
NOTE Long trip, expensive, weather is a coin flip.
