Doi Suthep with Darren & Paul

[KTMphil]

Quick day ride up the mountain with Darren on his Honda CRF 250 R motocross bike & Paul on his 2008 KTM 250, pretty soggy low down, but higher not so bad.

Greasy clay all the way up to the Hmong village, but still enough traction that wheels weren't spinning - it's been a really dry rainy season

Coming down the long long hill, the back brake boiled - Took a piss on it and it solved the problem!

I had problems with my KDX rear brake overheating and chose to use Dot 4 instead of the "bush mechanic" fix 555
