    Hi People,

    been a lurker here for a while... decided it was to introduce myself.
    Did a ride from France to Goa, via China a few years ago. Planning a return but it might take another year or two.

    Cheers,
    John

    Dear redboots,

    Goa? As in the little hippie-dippie beach state on India's west coast? From France to southwestern India via China? Now that's some trick! Can you show us your route, and maybe please spin us a yarn or three? Some pictures perhaps?

    Anyway, with a ride like that under your belt you'll fit right in here, regardless of the color of your boots! Welcome!

    ...and happy holidays.

    Thats the place I/we wrote a blog of the trip that you can read http://bikerbytes.com/txp along with photos and a gallery.
    Here's a little vid of the Shengi Pass http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpbxqaaA068. There's others there under the same userid.

    Nice blog and very interesting trip so far... I say so far because I'm only about half way through your journey. Hope you make it here again soon!

    Cheers!
