Total distance 158 km
Some modifications BobS made for my bike yesterday
Flexible aluminium to hold the panniers off the side panels
And more importantly off the exhaust
They appear to do the job, total cost 150 Baht and next to no weight gain
A few shots from along the 1189
This reservoir at Mae On is virtually empty
Does anyone know how long this statue on the 1330 has been there?
A dead end dirt track
On the unmade section of the 1330 I take a right towards Ban Mae Wong and was surprised to find this just around the corner
A couple of my side road excursions were halted by this today
Looking tricky now
Time to turn around I think.
On one track like this I had nowhere to turn around and had to push the bike backwards uphill, I was glad of the lighter weight of the 150
In Ban Mae Wong
A few tracks were tried but all dead ends, on one muddy section I was surprised at not having the rear tyre spin.
I wondered if perhaps the narrower rear tyre bites down in the mud more and finds a better bottom surface for grip
Another excursion involved some water crossings
This was the terminus
What the shooter brought home, I guess this delicacy is tonights food
Mae Takrai reservoir
Which was overflowing
Crossing these bridges was also a much easier job on the 150, I just happily rode across , on the 250 I often gingerly walked it over
Chicken parmighana with carbonera at Riders Corner 180 Baht (£3.60)
