15th 150km Bac Ha to Ha Giang Day 9 was a nice day. Started off a bit wet but was there for the famous Sunday market which was cool. Explored that quickly and then found a back road down which turned out to be under construction and then a landslide had destroyed what remained of…

100km Sapa to Bac Ha Day 8 was miserable weather. Stomach was miserable. Went back to bed. Woke mid morning and decided i had to make progress regardless. Bought a rain cape, got on the bike and slowly made it down the mountain on the back route which would have been nice in better weather.…

220km MX to Dien Bien Phu, 3000m two big climbs. Long massive day with the trots. Nice resort gave me food poisoning and 15km out of my way. Don’t bother trying to take short cuts in Laos. It’s not a thing and you will end up climbing a mountain quickly. A bit of up and…

100km Chiang Rai to Chiang Khong. Mostly flat. Easy late flight up to CR the night before, stayed in a clean budget hotel which did the trick and got the bike built Saturday am. Left CR 9am and cycled an uneventful day of 100km through rubber plantations, rice, parm, and villages. Bike doing its thing.…

拿到新的 Roubaix 并在所有类型的路面上做过了试骑，恰巧在车棚里也有 Crux 和 Diverge，我想这时候来给大家做个比较是合适的。 鲁贝 VS C&D 我猜它将成为我首选的快速探险旅行自行车、公路自行车和砾石自行车。 + 全天/月 长距离舒适 + 灵活的座杆:) 几天来坐骨区域和屁股的瘀伤消失了，与我的3D 打印坐垫相结合后……它确实更适合一整天或者多天的长距离骑行，体验更好，它还可以让你在崎岖不平的路面上减轻疲劳，因为你可以通过更平顺的踏板动作保持更长时间的坐姿。 减少背痛。 没有像我的旧 Crane Creek 曲柄那样会明显的上下摆动。 + 前方缓震Future shock 3，起初并没有真正注意到它，但最终非常欣赏它。 骑下来脖子酸痛、手腕和手麻木的情况明显减少了很多。感觉都不需要手套了。 它也非常适合搭配 TT 手把。 + 宽的胎容量。 最多到 40 cm。 非常适合公路自行车。 + 传动装置。 不确定我有什么（SRAM Force 2by），但它很棒。 有我需要的所有顶部和底部加上 TT 把末端的装置。 只希望它是可靠的…… + 大量安装点：是有上管、下管及下侧 3 个水壶支架安装点的公路自行车。 – 砾石轮胎宽度。 希望更快的40厘米宽的砾石轮胎和粗胎能够问世。 在此之前，我们一直使用 38 号轮胎，因为大多数好的砾石轮胎都是…
