About Us

Tony & Huệ

About Us:

As a Manx man from the Isle of Man, the road racing capital of the world, I’ve been surrounded by motorbikes most of my life.  As a child during the TT and Manx Grand Prix I’d walk down to our special spot with my family, through a small lane to stand right by the side of the track at Ago’s leap (named after 10 times TT winner Giacomo Agostini), watching the greats fly by and visiting the Grand Stand to collect stickers and autographs from the likes of Joey Dunlop and Mike Hailwood and then in later life enjoying the many tracks and trails around the Isle of Man on dirt bikes with friends and riding Enduros.

I first came to Vietnam in 2008, basically to meet a long lost friend and fellow Manx Man.  He’d been living here for about 16 years already and was able to show me around, tell me about Vietnam, a lot of which, you really wouldn’t get to know as a tourist.  After Hanoi I travelled south over land to Ho Chi Minh City and through time fell in love with the country, the friendliness of the people, incredibly beautiful and ever changing landscapes, different mouth-watering cuisine in every province, diverse culture and even better a land perfect for motorbike adventure travel with a ride anywhere culture, so I came back to live.

My wife Huệ is Vietnamese and we were introduced by mutual friends who had told me we had to meet as she enjoyed going on motorbike adventures, we haven’t looked back.

We hope to see you soon.

A Few Words from Tony

For me all the modes of transport, a journey by motorbike is like no other.  Total freedom to roam and explore territories few other travelers have been, to stop when and where you like and for as long as you like.

It’s also being open to the elements you’re in touch with your surroundings, the smell of the crops or cooking as you pass through a village, the sound of women singing in the fields as they harvest rice or the laughter of children playing in a river and the feeling of the sun on your face and of course the rain on your face as a storm passes over head.  In my opinion there is no better way to escape the hectic pace of the modern world.
