I did enjoy the video as well and I take my hat off to you 2 guys who went out and done the trip.
But I was surprised at times on the video to see the lack off projective clothing not being used.
Maybe your skin is stronger then mine lol.
Thanks for posting.

10-25-2016, 02:25 PMYour message is taken in good spirit, thanks for the reminder and caring. We did bring full gear and wore it as much as we could, particularly between cities. But when it got very hot on local roads, well, we weren't always so smart. If anyone has suggestions about wearing gear in steamy weather, I am a chronic sweater and when it gets hot I sweat so bad I get rashed up. No excuses, road rash is worse than anything. At least we always wore helmets?

10-26-2016, 02:08 AMI found a Revit cooling vest to be a real treat in China, combines with a mesh jacket. The climate here (Zhejiang) is humid and this thing doesnt dry all that fast. You have 3-4h of cooling and it feels great. Anyway after 2-3 h on a bike Id stop anyway, might as well make the vest wet again.
In hot desert air its useless. Dries in about 30min and than it makes you hotter.
