Cycling Tour
Kind of unusual post, but anyway. I was planning on doing a cycling tour in Thailand through SpiceRoads: https://www.spiceroads.com/tours/north in December. Problem is they have 2 minimum for the tour to happen. So kind of looking for one other person to sign up for guaranteed departure of the tour. So... if anyone is interested or knows someone who might be interested pass the word along. 
I did a three day hike there, and it really quite beautiful and away from all the touristy areas. Would be great to cycle there for a week!

I'm not sure why, rather than just pay the $350 extra to be a single you'd be willing to pay the $1,350 to take me along with you, but if you are, what the heck. I guess I'll have to go with you.
I'm out of school on Dec 20, so it needs to be after that.
Are you covering air fare too?

My wife and I did Spice roads Saigon to Bankok. There were 8 total. Damien was the main guide then we had local guides. Damien is an ex pat Aussie who lives in Chiang Mai. He is cool. Sounds like he will be your guide to. Have fun

Sounds like a very cool trip. I rented bicycles and motorcycles a few different places in Vietnam and really enjoyed it. Take lots of pictures and let us know how it goes. Oh, and I hope your roommate doesn't snore too badly or try to spoon during the night.
