The route 1169, 1081, 1256, 1081, 1080
Total distance 314 km
Heading out of town on the 1169 where the road widening is taking place, I have always loved this curving well surfaced road and I think it wont be the same fun once its been widened, lots of the trees will disappear along with some of the tight twisty curves
On the 1256 I see a few big bikes out today
Quite hazy in places now
The lovely 1256
I stop at the viewpoint to put my pullover on as its freezing right up this high
By the time I reach Bo Kluea the temperature is a lot warmer and I take a left onto the 1081
Further on and the surface isnt so good but its not as bad as I expected
Theres been a big landslip here
Even the safety barrier is nearly in the river
The Nan river must have flooded badly this year even up here
Thats one wonky bridge
The scenery is superb as always
Getting closer to Huai Kon and the surface is better
This reservoir was actually over flowing
After Huai Kon and the road becomes the 1080 and its on towards Nan
I finally got to try one of Tonys burgers tonight, lovely it was too, I was full up with this plus a portion of chips which together came to only 119 Baht.
