Laura Nicholls - "I will be doing a solo bike tour of Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand. During my 12 month tour I will be volunteering in disabled rehabilitation centres, teaching locals how to make and fit Prosthetic limbs and Orthotics appliances to aid rehabilitation and improve integration into work and society. Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam are amongst the countries which have the most landmines in the world, and there is very little provision for the injured to be rehabilitated. I will be cycling around 5000 miles over the course of the trip, around very mountainous terrain, in very varying conditions."

The 2nd post in this thread confuses me as it appears they seem to be suggesting the op is the one going on the tripWant to know the Spen666 behind the posts?

I don't think Cooldad is Laura. Maybe Cooldad is Laura's dad and he's cool. He may also be accompanying Laura as mechanic, translator and general fixer.
Maybe Cooldad is Laura's lover and Laura is actually Coolmum?
Maybe they have no contact at all and Cooldad just thinks Laura is doing (or at least trying to do) a good thing.

You need to read this thread:
http://www.bikeradar.com/forums/viewtop ... t=12745731
Basically Peter joined the forum to get everyone to vote for him to have a nice time climbing. In true Crudcatcher style, we decided Laura, who's not only riding a bike on her challenge but doing some good Charity work as well, should get our votes.

"You ask, what is our aim?
I can answer in one word: It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. Let that be realised; no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge and impulse of the ages, that mankind will move forward towards its goal. But I take up my task with buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. At this time I feel entitled to claim the aid of all, and I say, "come then, let us go forward together with our united strength." Winston S Churchill
