One thing I can highly reccomend for anyone wanting a riding experience they'll never forget is a trip off road around Cambodia, Thailand or Vietnam.
After years of talking about it, my brother, sister, a mate and I spent 8 days riding through the mountains of Cambodia. The experience was absolutely amazing, we saw so much, experienced a great welcome form
locals, and for those on a tight budget the trip (including air fares, bike hire, food etc) was little over $3000.
One of the best parts was relaxing on the beaches for a few days afterwards going through how awesome it was.
