Dr. Frazier's world exploits take him to Vietnam, a country where almost half the population rides small displacement motorcycles. Read about his travels in his September column, Dr. Frazier - Vietnam Adventure Riding.

Nice article. I've riden in Vietnam before. It's a very lovely country to do sightseeing. Plenty of lush green vegetations and multitudes of small and big rivers and creeks where every you go. It's a communist country, but the people of Vietnam are 10 times more friendly than most of the developed world. I've been to many places in Asia, like China, S. Korea, Japan, Singapore, Thailan, Singapore, and Vietnam, and IMO, the Vietnamese are probably the friendliest bunch.

If you spend extensive time in this country and get to know its people, you'd find it hard to imagine that this was once a hotspot for an ideological war between communism and the West. That pretty much devastated the country and its people for a whole generation. Quite sad. It's sad that the Vietnamese people today still are suffering from the remnant of agent Orange.
