Vietnam is a superb place to visit though Hanoi and HCM City / Saigon can be overwhelming at first but you soon adjust. It seemed to me that the average speed was low comapred to the UK and people more aware of other road users.
Not sure on how many miles you intend to travel and if you want to stick to the main highway (there was only one running north / south when I was there but maybe they have extended this) but the roads / tracks to the more remore towns and villages especially in Central Nam are steep and rough.
Also the local women floating past on there bikes in the local dress / Ao Dai are superb. Some seriosly good lookin girls.
Just watch out for the crazy stuff on display at the War Museum or was the locals call it - The American War Crimes Museum.
