The route 3, 63, 12, 2
Total distance 243 km
It was one of those days today, I got up and packed in the sunshine but as I was about to leave it started raining, I put my wet gear on and rode off, less than 1 km later the roads were bone dry and the 3 was a joy to ride with some good bends like the above one
A cemetery along the roadside
I stop for breakfast at this Muslim restaurant just before Endau at N02.38.456 E103.37.842
A delicious chicken Ayam Berlada and fried noodles for 60 Baht
Another full river of fast flowing muddy water
I take a left to ride the 63 and not far along here the heavens open for a while so I take shelter under here
Shes in a rush to get nipper and herself out of the rain
It stops raining and I enjoy the rest of todays ride in the dry, the roads were busy again today on the start of the Chinese new year
I ride into Kuantan and check in here at N03.48.668 E103.19.372 for 250 Baht
A double bed and a fan, shared toilet/shower
About four places from my hotel there is a KFC, but unfortunately for the good Colonel theres an Indian restaurant even closer and I eat here at N03.48.677 E103.19.366
A chicken curry and rice to start with
A piece of spicy fried chicken too, total bill 65 Baht.
