Asia On Rubber: november 2009
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Fredag 13 november 2009. How do you decide where to go? I don’t know. I want to go everywhere and I’ve always been a bit disappointed about not yet having been there. But I’m still young. Maybe I should apply for a job to drive the Google Car. Courtesy of the University of Texas Libraries, The University of Texas at Austin. Torsdag 12 november 2009. 2 The Uplifting Planning. So I’ll give it a try, though I am not as nervous as I am excited. My D200 will do. Laptop? Bought one. When I’m planning...My life...

Asia On Rubber: mars 2010
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tisdag 30 mars 2010. 36 It’s hard work to get to Sin City. The climbs turned out to be the kind of climb that starts but never ends. Laos isn’t exactly a flat country, but riding a steep uphill for hours and hours and you start to curse whoever planned the road. I can see the valley far down below, surely it must be possible to put the road down there? I had the road mostly to myself, however, just occasionally passed by trucks and tourist busses. Cycling around the world for charity. Perhaps it is due t...

Asia On Rubber: december 2009
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Tisdag 8 december 2009. The one and only useful thing I learned in the army, besides digging trenches, was how to pack a bag. You’d think you would learn more than that in ten months, but apparently not. I always travel light and I am usually the one with weight to spare, something my fellow travellers quickly abuses. You wouldn’t believe what I have hauled over the Atlantic Ocean (including a porcelain dinner set). Nothing illegal though. An HP NC2230S laptop and a lot of cables. 2 wheels 1 fork.

Asia On Rubber: januari 2010
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Lördag 30 januari 2010. I am way behind schedule. Every place seems to keep me a little bit longer than initially planned and taking the ferry from Penang to Langkawi saves me two days of riding. It’s only cheating if it is a competition (that is my official excuse). I ran into my local “friend” again. He claimed he had been waiting for me outside my hostel for several hours last night, and wondered why I never called. Gee, I don’t know! What’s your name, again? Some people are crazier than others. I am ...

Asia On Rubber: maj 2010
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Lördag 1 maj 2010. 43 Wrapping things up. The rain was pouring down outside the bus to KL, while I was sitting in a comfortable leather recliner with massage functions watching the road pass by. I couldn’t help thinking about how much I rather would be out there on the shoulder riding a bicycle. Ice in the beer helps a lot. Petronas Towers as seen from KL Tower. The original and best. Singapore Sling at Raffles Hotel. Prenumerera på: Inlägg (Atom). 43 Wrapping things up. 2 wheels 1 fork.

Asia On Rubber: april 2010
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Tisdag 27 april 2010. Even though it has been well over a decade since we last met, it felt like it was just nine years ago and we immediately got along. Hong Kong felt like a blend of New York and San Francisco, at least their respective Chinatowns, and I fell in love with the city right away. It helps when you are guided through the bar areas by a local who, by a coincidence, also likes to drink beer. Gambling is not how I’ll be rich, and I already knew that from years of Black Jack losses. I managed t...

Asia On Rubber: 1. The Depressing Introduction
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2009/11/introduction.html
Måndag 9 november 2009. 1 The Depressing Introduction. What would you do if you have nothing left? What would you do when the only possible option, except biting the bullet, is to leave everything and start over? What would you do when the goddamn pills don’t work? You could turn the question around and ask yourself “If I could do anything, what would I do? I was surfing the nets at work (I LOVE my job) when I stumbled upon this video. I mean, how hard can it be? It’s not like I can’t walk! A couple who ...

Asia On Rubber: februari 2010
http://asiaonrubber.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Fredag 26 februari 2010. 26 Change of plans. I have become one of them. I had to choose between two evils, and I chose to take the bus rather than cycling into Bangkok. Even though I was the only foreigner on the coach I have degraded myself from Master Explorer to Simple Tourist! 70 km from Hua Hin to Phetchaburi. 7 km riding around in Phetchaburi. 6 km riding on a highway into Bangkok. 70 km from Hua Hin to Phetchaburi. Damn I’m good! Rob, Dan and a bottle of Chang. Same place, another angle. I passed ...
