Mike - That picture on the way to Mueng Khong is stellar. Always enjoy your contributions.
Loop - I never knew you roadraced, and is that Troy Corser's exit speed you're gonna ruin :G ? Just kidding and I love that pic of you on the crosser, fantastic.
Special for me would be the joyous faces i come across when on my multiday offroad trips. Sadly I'm horrific with a camera so I'll apologize in advance.
I pulled up with a flat in front of this house and these kids, all alone and no parents, were not scared or intimidated by me, they just got me some tools to help, once they saw me sweating they got a bottle of water, the kindest little souls I have ever met.
When I gave them some Kip to say thank you. They talked amongst themselves and gave it back to me. Hell they were so great they almost made me want to have children. I told them thank you for giving my money back to me but please take it as a gift for their good hearts.
And during our ride to deliver clothes for the needy in rural parts of Laos I came across many, many, youngsters that made me feel just happy.
They have next to nothing yet can find joy and a reason to smile, which helps always to keep me in check and make me happy to share moments with some of them.
Here having some laughs with the kids.
That is what "special" is for me.
