  • Touring Vietnam Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) to Hanoi in 14 Days / 11 Stages/ 1200 Miles
    Touring Vietnam Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) to Hanoi in 14 days / 11 stages/ 1200 miles. Our tour began in mid-February but my tale goes back to October during an annual two day group ride through Big Sur. Chuck Schroyer who was providing SAG support and he told me he was going to do this trip with Dzung Dang. Chuck and Dzung I knew from riding SuperTour. Bonnie Faigeles, also a SuperTour veteran was on the Big Sur ride, separately Chuck told Bonnie about the trip and she also decided she wanted to be part of it. We were the four musketeers. Dzung was born in Vietnam and like so many he with his family had to leave when the war ended in 1975. When Dzung started cycling he decided to tour Vietnam which he did in 2012. That trip was solo and he made many friends along the way. He toured the country again in 2014 with a friend he met and support along the way. Support for four riders included a seven passenger SUV, one native guide and driver. We also had two local riders receiving support for the first few days from Saigon to Danang. When I signed up I did not realize this was much more than a bike tour. On Dzung’s previous tours he had raised funds to aid poor children and orphanages. The network he had created in the country was organized around the cycling clubs. Our trip included three days where we visited schools and orphanages to distribute aid which included bicycles for the neediest children.

  • The Story of New Urban Areas in Can Tho City
    Planning for peri-urban development and flooding issues: The story of new urban areas in Can Tho City Group of researchers Dr. Nguyen Ngoc Huy- Institute for Social and Environmental Transition-International, MSc. Ky Quang Vinh -Climate Change Coordination Office -CCCO Can Tho, Arch.Nguyen Thi Anh Ngoc- Can Tho City Center for Inspection and Construction Planning, MSc. Tran The Nhu Hiep-Can Tho City Institute of Socio-Economic Development Studies, MSc. LeThu Trang-National University of Civil Engineering, Arch.Tran Kieu Dinh-Can Tho City Association of Architects. 1. Introduction The Mekong Delta (MKD), in which Can Tho City is located, occupies a low-lying region in the center of South Hau River (Bassac River). The MKD is predicted to be one of the three most vulnerable deltas in the world caused by climate change. The topography of the city is flat and low with a height of 0,5-1m above sea level. Along Hau River, national highway 1 and national highway 91, the land raises to a height of 1,0-1,5m above sea level which has developed into the city center. From Hau River, the land is gradually lower in Northeast- Southwest direction. Seasonal flooding is a typical natural characteristic of the MKD and Can Tho City. Rainy season often starts from May to November with highest rainfalls recorded from August to October at the same time of high flow discharge from upstream which annually creates “Mùa nước nổi” (water moving season). “Mùa nước nổi” provides livelihood the benefits of natural aquatic products and transports sediments to the fields, thus act as a natural mechanism of fertility recovery.
