Hello, my bf loves motorbikes and last summer we were looking at the Honda Fireblade in black (it was a new release), we've been drooling since. We were also considering getting a cute little Honda Grom because I have to start off slow.

I'm planning a trip to Vietnam which includes an off road bike tour.

There's a few blogs about travel there (by those with T1).

Thinking about storing NovoRapid cartridges and back up Lantis pen during air travel and motorbiking off road with limited amenities during overnighting at homestays ... insulin-specific flasks seem best for longer temperature control and protection, as well as likely to be OK to take onboard flights.

They have mixed reviews online, so it's not clear if they are good or dodgy.
It will be too late to find out when I'm horizontal in a flowing stream I failed to cross with a 150cc Honda, 3 days out of Hanoi.

I have used Frio packs for short term protection against hotter weather but that is not going to be useful for cool/warm fluctuations and a couple of weeks' supplies.

Any experience with this challenge or equipment?
 
Lol, I don’t to be honest no offense but I hate them because
1. There very dangerous, some people die just by falling off.
2. The only protection you are required is helmet. I know I cycle but with cycling you going a lot slower speed.
3. There’s a lot of accidents with motorbikes and all the ones I’ve read cause serious injury or death
4. There way too noisy.

These are just a few points
 
And yet...
Far too many cyclist have been squashed under lorries in London, yet that doesn't make it a dangerous activity.?

And not withstanding the idiot cyclists, starting with the one who killed a lady crossing the road just because he thought a speed that fast was 'cool' because hitting a human being at a slow speed like 30mph perhaps wouldn't be fatal...Muppet.

It's all relative.
What some find scary and frightening.
Other find an acceptables risk and ok.

If being injured or hurt bothers you so much
Why even leave the house..?
As burglars might creep in, earthquakes might happen and asteroids would never know it was your house they hit... Would they.

Childbirth is dangerous yet your family proceeded with it... Do you think they were wrong to take the risks.,.?

Lighten up, life is full of danger.
Just because it's not for you, but other things are ok, with it
Didn't make you right, it
Just makes you a tad chicken little...

Cycle safe
Be aware
Watch out for lorries.
Be safe.
