Chiang Rai-A Loop Through The Mountains On Dirt And Paved

[Captain_Slash]

The route 4044, 1089, 3037, 118, 1211

Total distance 206 km

Breakfast was at the Muslim restaurant next to the Mosque, a nice chicken stir fried with ginger 40 Baht

It was a morning when I didnt know whether to expect rain or shine, I set off and found it to be a chilly ride to start with along the 4044





Nearing the 1089 and its quite slow going now as its a steep rocky ride with lots of greasy red shit as the surface















Descending onto the 1089 was not the nicest experience



Now at the Mae Suai reservoir which is unsurprisingly overflowing





White water flowing down is always a beautiful sight

















Todays photos are all over the place as the uploader does as it wants, now some more of this mornings photos from the 4044

















A new bridge is being built







In the sunshine

In the shade, it certainly feels cold today

Looks like you found a window in the weather Colin, see you found the bridge to nowhere and a few nice slippery bits along the way.

Good find find for the GH 200 baht is cheap in Chiang Rai.

Pity you didn't join me for the ride today, you could have been freezing your ass of up Doi Anghan 😄

I found a few places where the single rooms were 150 Baht but they were all full up.

It was cold enough where I was believe you me
