An unnumbered twisty paved road

Looks like some building work is taking place here
73626

73627
The concrete is being knocked up and there are plenty of blocks to lay, I clear off before someone hands me a trowel

I thought this track might have something interesting to offer as it had a sign at the start, but nothing down it
73631

73632

73633
Now this fun single track took me a long time to finish exploring its offshoots
73634
It kept on splitting in different directions
73635

73636

73637
Interesting fungus growing on this tree
73638

73639

73640
The single track even goes through a dried up riverbed
73641

73642
The only water left here
73643
I am at the end of one offshoot and climb up to see what is over the hill
73644
There is no way the Wave can get up there unless I carry it up
73645
According to the Garmin GPS map I am now on a double track that will lead me back to the highway but its much harder riding than what the single track was
73646
The photo doesnt show how awkward negotiating this was going to be, I was glad I was on the Wave as I would have tiurned round on anything bigger.
It was a bit of a struggle manhandling the Wave down into the gulley then back up again on the other side
73647
Finally I reach the double track
73648
That looks like the ideal lunch spot

This stick insect was on my back when I stopped then it decided my rack was its home
73651

73652
It just clung on tightly even when it was touched
73653

73654

73655
After I had eaten I saw it had left the bike

More tracks found out here than I was expecting
73662

73663
Looking over at where the single track starts that I found last week that led through the hill to the 1175

Chicken tikka masala and rice at Bismillah 250 Baht, a very delicious meal
 
That was one damn scrawny stick insect. I hope you fed it something.
