Ha Noi Friday Night Tour

[dalatbeco]

I quote this topic on behalf of a friend. Here is his message:

Hello,

As a fellow bicyclists here in Hanoi, you are cordially invited to join us for a little bike ride every Friday evening. All over the world there are gatherings of riders intent on making a statement about cyclists' rights, but there are equally as rides organized for the purpose of social interaction and down right fun. Our ride this Friday is modeled after the later.

Tell your friends that we plan on a short urban ride through streets of Hanoi after traffic dies down to enjoy the sites and each others company. We will meet at the Opera House at 9pm and roll out no later than 9:30pm. There will be a couple stops along the way that allow us to mingle. And the pace will be leisurely.

Sincerely,

Nguyen Duy Linh

P/S: Here is, so far, the proposed ride map.
