harrry Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I wish her the best. A 13 year old girl has climbed everest because she had the guts to do it, just because this model has good paintwork and may be well ridden does not mean she cannot do it. I doubt some posting criticism can though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soihok Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well, thats it. She made it. End of the road for this trip. Did she ride all the way? We will never know, but she is there and achieved what she set out to do. So I say, well done VP. Now......what would you rather be doing ...............?????? 8h vaunephanDearest Mt Everest,Oh my oh myHow majestically you stand before my eyesI've travelled far, I've travelled wideI'll never forget this ride of my lifetimeCrossing through 5 different countries on my little scrambler motorbike Climbed mountainous altitudes from low to high almost daily with endless rides Some days are gloomy, some days brightMy cheek pads are soaked with sweat and some tears that I've criedThrough temperatures of intense heat, to as cold as ice Weathering through massive rains, bumpy tarmac and uphill climbsTo rocky gravel, downhill corners and in gushing streams I was left behindTo falling down and getting back up, I'd catch up, it's just a matter of timeAlas, this is the furthest I can get to youAs 2 days prior to my arrival here there has been a landslide nearbyIt damaged the roads into base camp, preventing me from getting closer to youOh, when mothernature calls, who dare not comply?A little disappointed, you can hear my little sighs But I'm still very thankful because I'm safe and aliveThough I only get to see you from a far, watching clouds and showers go byThrough this journey, my heart has been opened and so did my mindSo my journey to you has come to an end, it's time for me to say goodbyeBut all the memories and emotions felt will be with me for as long as TimeNever say no to adventure, you'll never know what you'll findYou only live once, live and awesome one and enjoy the ride. www.vaunephan.blogspot.sg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soihok Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 End of the day she didn't go solo. As pointed out earlier in the thread it isn't possible to enter China on your bike on your own. I do think she was on her own up to Laos though. Anyway, I am happy she packed that little red dress for the photo. Have to give her a thumbs up.

But I thought she was alone!!!! I know most of us seriously doubted this point and I'm sure we are correct, at least she went there and at least rode 'some' of it when the weather was nice. I for one would love to do this trip. I'm free in October..anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laisze Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I for one would love to do this trip. I'm free in October..anyone? Make that May (before the Monsoon), going through Nepal, and you can count me in. No support vehicles though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchbike Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 ^^ That would be one awesome trip, My schedule would be: Thailand> Burma>I Never Do It Again> Nepal and while in Nepal riding to Pokhara ( starting point of many treks in the Annapurna region) Would love to do the "around Annapurna trek" one more time.

Laisze Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) That would be one awesome trip... within the "it's the journey, not the destination" spirit of adventure. Edited July 2, 2015 by Laisze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garryjohns Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Latest from our 'boyishly good looking" adventure lady. She says; Full details and photos of my journey has been captured and will be updated on my blog real soon! All its going to take for me is before and after odometer reading and a close up showing how much her tyres have worn..... It took me close to a month to ride from Singapore to the highest region on Earth, Tibet, where Everest stands. And now, I'm boarding the plane where it'll take just a couple of hours to get me back to Singapore. It's time for me to come home :..) I miss my family and friends. But words alone can't describe how thankful I am to have received so much support from every single country I have traveled through for this trip. Singapore - Where Home is, you've been amazing. Thank you for all the messages of encouragement and kind words you have sent me that has helped kept me going all the way. Malaysia - Thank you to Ministry Of Superbikes for organizing the press conference in KL and its just wonderful meeting bikers from my neighboring country. Thailand - Your genuine hospitality shown has gone beyond my expectations and I'm so grateful to be able to meet every single person I've met here, from Tourism Thailand to Biker Chicks Thailand, locals and definitely not forgetting the kind bike mechanic and his family who brought my bike back to life and told me to never give up. Laos - You've taught me that amidst the simplicity of life, there can be pure joy and laughter, that Life can still be thoroughly enjoyed and it has taught me never to take even the simplest thing for granted. China - You've shown me a side of you I've never seen. Not only did I witness the beautiful side of your country's natural landscapes, but so were the people whom I've encountered. I met kind and helpful ones almost every step of the way here, from cities to villages, many who filled me with so much information and we exchanged WeChat contacts where they urged me to call them should I need any help along the way. Tibet - You're an eyeopener, a place that has definitely left an impression in my heart with such deep culture and with all the different ethnic groups living together as one is what makes you so unique. This is a ride of a lifetime I will never forget, and it is filled with so much emotions from precious moments.. it's #BeyondEverest. I wished I could cross over to Nepal, where the shipping of my bike would take place too, but ZhangMu (Tibet Border to Nepal) is closed due to the quake. Will continue to #pray4nepal. Full details and photos of my journey has been captured and will be updated on my blog real soon! Singapore, I'm coming home smile emoticon www.vaunephan.blogspot.sg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
