Chiang Mai-Pa Pae And Some Dirt Tracks

[Captain_Slash]

The Route 107, 3009, 1095


Total Distance 165 km

I turn left off the 1095 at Pa pae and take a paved road for a few km that has a small running stream alongside it for a while

At a fork I take a left that soon stops where these statues are being carved

Another one is being measured and it will be a baby Buddha

A finished baby Buddha

I ride on and the surface turns to unpaved at N19 08.082 E098 41.407 at a junction with another track, here I turn left

I was surprised at how clear a day it was out here

At a junction this was being built, here I take a left

This track doesnt look like its been used for a while and that deep rut in the middle might be a problem

Just past here I reach a paved surface that goes up towards those transmitters.
Its a paved surface from N19 07.631 E098 38.429 to N19 06.786 E098 38.374

I go up to the transmitters for some good views

Then along the dirt track

I take a left to get back to my start point at Pa Pae and now its a ride through the forest

This brings me back to my start point and the surface returns to paved at N19 07.164 E098 42.050
These were all new tracks for me today, still lots to find around Chiang mai

Along the 1095

Now some shots from along the 3009

Back in Chiang Mai and my bike gets washed every 12,000 km whether it needs one or not

Personally I dont think it needs one but at Kawasaki they are a bit funny about servicing them in this state

Yes all of that came off my bike

My wallet is now 80 Baht lighter and the KLX feels about 8 kg lighter

A monster pizza at Pizza N Pasta for 420 Baht, I used to easily consume one of these but tonight I struggled to finish it, thats worrying
