Total distance 191 km
A bit of a late start as yesterday afternoon on the ride back the noises coming from the back brake suggested new pads were required.
Castrol Bike Point soon had new ones fitted even though the rear wheel needs to come out to replace them, all for the sum of 150 Baht fitted
Time to explore this farm track on the off chance that it links up
It soon turns to single track
And finishes here
I hit a bump a bit too hard and hear a noise from the GPS, its knocked my external power source out but fortunately the batteries last the day
These two were at the suspension bridge crossing at Ban Pong Nam Ron
While these two ladies were enjoying their food along the track
My roadside lunch stop and quite a few bikes come past
A bit more single track to explore
He looked a bit agitated as I rode up to him but once he saw I was a foreigner he was as friendly as anything, some rivalry out here I guess
A double track takes me to the narrow bridge then its single track heading in three directions to explore
This one went quite a way
Finally I reach the end of it
Now to enjoy it on the ride back
No new villages found today but that didn't detract from the enjoyment at all.
Once home the first thing was to look at the power supply for the GPS, the fuse wasn't blown and everything looked okay.
I put it all back together tightly and now its working again luckily
Sausage, chips, onions and curry sauce at Sawaddee 140 Baht
