Back at the village there is a single track not showing on the GPS going up over the hills to where I want to go, its steep with no signs of bikes using it and I choose to go back the way I came in and explore there from another track

I decide to try the single track linking these two villages and on the ride down these kids are taking shelter from the hot sun

A double portion of moo hunglay for 70 Baht from the market, nice but not as nice as my usual food
 
Nice report Colin, good to see we have no fires this year as promised LOL. When are you getting a plate on that bike or are you undercover ??
 
Looked like a very hot, dry, smokey day out there. Good to see you're not one of these Princesses that gets put off by a bit of smoke.
