Kevin was up early and off on his bike by about 5.15am. He is on a mission to ride north up the coast line. He rode 33km return trip and says that the ride was the most exhilarating ride ever. He saw many other cyclists riding or stopped having coffee. His only problem was that the seat kept adjusting down and he would have to stop to adjust it. When he got back I headed off to Louisiane Brewhouse while he had breakfast and took the bike back to the rental shop to get the seat fixed. We stayed at Louisiane until lunch time and then headed back. I got a phone call from the girl who was now ready to sell he bike for VND $400 or A$22 so I went and collected it before she could change her mind. Kevin came and while I was discussing the sale he chatted with Jennie at Jennie’s Apartments who we had met on previous holidays. We pumped the tyres up the best we could with the hand pump and took the bike back to the hotel. We sprayed it with RP7 and it was ready to go. I took it to the motor bike repair shop which had an air compressor and had them pump the tyres up and then I was good to go. After lunch Kevin went walking to the foreshore to do some people watching while I took the bike out for a ride past Xom Moi Market to MaxiMark which is on Thai Nguyen Street. I had to negotiate a couple of massive roundabouts that have about 6 roads coming into them. MaxiMark is 4 stories of department store and supermarket. I wondered around and then into the supermarket which is much bigger than Nha Trang Centre. I stocked up on Tonic and some cheddar cheese. I got back to hotel around 5.30 and Kevin had just got back and was watching Wimbledon tennis. After a G&T we headed to Louisiane BrewHouse for dinner. I had the chicken scolopene which was a snitzel with mushroom sauce and Kevin had chicken cordon Bleu. Kevin mentioned that this is the best he has ever had. We each had a different beer, Kevin the sparking ale and I the Wietber. We got back from dinner to see the end of the tennis game we had started watching.
