Motorcycle Adventure Vietnam | Riding the Backroads of Northern Vietnam

This is Episode One, and it all begins in Vietnam. From the chaos of Hanoi to the remote dirt roads of the north, this is motorcycle adventure riding the way we like it — muddy, unpredictable, and shared with good mates. Riding alongside Woody and Ellyse from Ellwood Motorcycle Adventures, Nugget and I drop into the mountains, chase forgotten trails, cross creeks, and follow roads that don’t always want to be followed. Northern Vietnam delivers everything: loamy clay single track, farming villages, steep climbs, big skies, and moments where the ride slows long enough to take it all in. This is more than a route — it’s the beginning of a journey that will carry us across Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand, one border at a time. This film sets the tone for the series: Less highways. More dirt. No shortcuts.
