Buddha's Footprint DST with Adrian & Johnny

[KTMphil]

Beautiful rainy-season day, with no rain - a perfect day in the mountains with damp trails (looked like it had rained the night before)





The route

Single track from the 700 year stadium area to Hauy Thong Tao resv'r






Views from the Buddha's Footprint were pretty spectacular

Adrian's Yamaha WR 450 F on the left, my KTM 300 exc-e 2 -stroke on the right






After man-handling the bikes through the stone dog leg just passed the Buddha's Footprint, off down towards the viewpoint

Adrian having a go at the hill climb challenge, on the 3rd attempt he may have got higher than anyone so far

Its a tough hill climb , soft loose soil and you have to dodge trees , I got about 10 meters from the top and my bike just died , Ill do it next time for sure !!

Go to about 1 minute and 40 seconds and you can see the man-handling of the bikes down the dog leg rocks at the Buddha's Footprint

Go to 8 minutes and 35 seconds to see what Johnny is talking about.

The trick is to roll the bike backwards in the turn (at 1:40) so you don't have to turn the bike around on the big rock. Will make it really easy, just let the bike slide down along the rock. 3

8:35... pretty funny haha!

 

[Loop]

8.35,so easy to do after you`ve been man handling the bike/s. You forgot to take a bow 55

It was pretty slick on some of the clay slopes
