A while ago I asked if anyone had any good ideas for a name for Adam and Marty's cyclo. Today, I received an email from Marty on the subject.
He writes:
"We've been thinking about the name for a while. Thanks for the suggestions but we've decided to dedicate our cyclo to a close friend of ours who was tragically killed in the London bombings in July.
"Mike Matsushita - a fellow tour leader - had just moved to London to live with his girlfriend Rosie (pictured above with Mike), another dear friend, and happened to be on that train that morning.
"We both spent a lot of quality time with Mike in Vietnam, the country he loved so much.
"In dedication to Mike the cyclo has taken on the name "Matsu" - and he's coming down the Vietnamese coast with us one more time."
Hi you two adventurers, we are friends of Adam's parents and to quote Mark "oh to be young and 30 again".
Have a great time, enjoy the challenge and be proud!
