A lovely sunny morning as I ride in on a track I rode out from yesterday afternoon, I had noticed tracks going south off of it and thought they linked up with the 4076 further south but sadly they didnt, it was a dead end

As I ride past here I reach the end of the track and had to ride back

Somehow a red ant landed on me as I rode past and a quick stop was required as it got onto my forehead

The 4076 has a lot of loose gravel on the surface

Its setting in places

I venture out a bit but can feel it getting spongier, I have no desire to sink in that stuff

I threw a small rock with my left hand and planned on snapping it with my right hand, I think I caught it just as it landed

Because it quickly closed up again

Lots of bubbles coming up and I dont think its from fish in there.
Here's a challenge for those of you who swear by these life straw water filters, come and drink some of this and let me know what it tastes like

The cattle have got in the wrong field and are being chased out

The Wave easily goes through that, having narrow tyres is good as the tyre goes down and grips a solid surface, no sitting there spinning the rear wheel

Today I finished mapping the area I planned on completing and this ride wraps up my Nan adventures for this trip.
Hope to get back here for christmas again

Back at my guesthouse and the Immigration Police came around earlier in the day to see me as there was a problem with my paperwork that they needed to clear up.
Five minutes after I arrive they come back again, their computer says I have overstayed my visa.
A quick check of my passport soon clears the problem up, these guys were super friendly and very professional, telling me I could do another 60 day visa run then extend that for a further 30 days should I want to.
I guess somewhere along the line somebody has entered a wrong date in the computer

Lasagna and garlic bread at Gin restaurant tonight, the lasagna had a nice flavour,
150 baht for it with one piece of garlic bread, the extra four pieces of garlic bread cost 80 Baht.
Value for money wise this place sucks
 
Thanks Ron, I hope to ride to Mae Sariang tomorrow and stay there for a few days or maybe a week, then its off to Mae Sot for a visa run and probably a months stay there
