Many youngsters love to experience Sapa by motorbike but this bears risk when you make a ride more than 320km (motorbike cannot go on Noi Bai - Lao Cai hwy). It is even more dangerous when you go up the Sapa pass. Road there is so zigzag. You should be the backpackers with time unlimited and healthy to do the trip by this way.
