Who's coming cycling on a safe road?
Just seen a report on the BBC from Burma about something or other, i didn't really pay much attention to be honest
The thing that got me what the super highway that Burma has built, 20 lanes and there was 1 car and 1 motorbike on it, so after doing some research (looked on wikipedia)
Public transport services are limited between neighborhoods.The eight-lane, 323.2 km Yangon-Naypyidaw highway links Naypyidaw with Yangon directly, and is part of the 563 km-long overall Yangon-Naypyidaw-Mandalay highway. There is also a 20-lane boulevard, but like most roads in the city, it is largely empty.

Not a clue, but i'm only talking about the road, i don't think there is a way into the country without being granted special permission or sneaking in across the border
And there,s not a pothole in sight.
Not entirely sure how safe cycling in Burma would be... there's all the Juntas still, aren't there?
