    As usual, I departed very early. The street was almost nobody there.
    At the meeting point:


    My plan was getting to the new road/pass, which I missed due to the last mishap.

    Because of long time sitting home, so we lost our way at about almost 100km away from home.
    We did not expected to go offroad like this:



    Get this road in our mind, it will become a very good road soon. We 'll be back.



    Found the right track, we had breakfast, had some coffee and also put some "coffee" to the bike:
    :


    Back on the road, the sun was raising, damn hot.
    We stopped for a while before getting on the pass. We had some water and set up the Camera:





    Three of us all sweaty:


    We are ready now:


    Yeah, it's my new VFR :

    Stop for a while near the hydro-power plant.






    This view quite familiar if you follow my previous trip report:




    Then ride, ride, and ride...
    I am not so confident to take photos while riding like before. So, here I only have photos when we stopped.

    Another stop beside the power plant lake:


    Yeah, Repsol is one of my favorite color scheme, but I prefer my Red-White-Blue VFR:

    Slowly ride to the place we can take some photos with the lake.
    Yeah, it's here - the place marked as Photo site ( 11°18'49.00"N 107°53'27.69"E):


    From there, we can see some small islands, they looked very impressive:



    Yeah, let's spend some minutes for the show.

    CBR1K Repsol version first:

    Hey, wake up. Long way still ahead!!

    @12:30, we done the gears and ready for the afternoon ride.
    Slowly ride to the full fill the gas tank, then heading to the B40 and Loc Bac Pass.
    About Loc Bac pass, that is my unforgetable memory.
    The new road thru Loc Bac pass has just completely built May2011 and Govt just allow people to use since Q4 last year.
    All the big bike riders in Vietnam know nothing about that road. I only heard about that when unintentionally talking with friend of my friend during a dinner. He is local there and said that the new road has been put in use.
    I had to postponed my Loc Bac trip until this time due to my accident last year, so that you may know how does the Loc Bac pass mean to me. And so on to my feeling, it is really difficult to explain when almost getting there.

    Leaving Bao Loc, we reached B40 first @ 13:15hrs:


    The sign board says: "The B40 pass" - we have no idea why it called B40. But we can figured it was named as the US military fired a lot of B40 there. Ok, whatever.


    The small sign says: Km 33 - Loc Bac pass 15Km (ahead)


    We concentrated on the road with all the twisted elbow turns.
    We could not take any overview photo like this:



    13:30hrs, I get this - Straight to Loc Bac pass, Right to Hydro-power plan Dong Nai 4:


    Olah lah... Here is the starting point of the Loc Bac Pass


    We stopped here for a while to have some water.
    I also checked the handheld GPS and found that the batteries already dead. Lucky me that I found it here. Went to the shop nearby to buy some batteries for replacement. All good.

    Then we ready for Lộc Bắc pass.
    Here I come!!!!

    About to reach Loc Bac pass, there were a lot of clouds coming.
    I gotta change the helmet visor from iridium dark to clear visor to get more confident.
    The road appeared very nice, clean, newly painted lane lines and sign boards.

    Sometimes we saw some trucks coming downhill and bring some dirt with their wheels. The road surface get some dirt.
    Knew that the landscape along the road very beautiful but we did concentrate on the twisty road, have no time to stop for photos. Let's do it next time.

    Reached a quite open area, we slowed down and take a break with some water.

















    Here is where we passed:


    And this is waiting for us:


    It was really fun winding road. New, clean, no traffic, nice view... those are all what I may say about this road at that moment.
    A snapshot from my GoPro, mounted on my left saddle bag:

    We finish the Loc Bac pass within about almost 1hr more.
    Take two more stops for water prior to home.
    I gotta change my leather jacket to the net jacket, coz I know that the nearer to my home, the worse traffic is.
    Got home quite late due to the terrible speed we made within Hochiminh City. Imagine you on the VFR and ride more slowly than walking!!!

    6:42PM at my home, done the 500km plus day trip:


    Not a good tracklog as I have GPS battery issue, so, there are two disconnections on the route:


    First trip of my return with not many buddies, however I can enjoy the twisty with several stops - it good for the one like me.

    Inside the house, my sweat still running like hell but very, really happy and satisfy with the nice return.



    In my head, the beauty of Loc Bac pass is staying still:


    Thank you all my ACE MTSG buddies who being or not with me on road for my return.
    See you guys next trip.
