29-1-20 Chiang Mai-Following The Canal Road North Of Town

[Captain_Slash]

Distance 92 km

In town this morning and I have never seen so many masks being worn before

After two days in the shop being repaired I get the Wave back and find some flat roads to enjoy running it in again



North east of Mae Rim and lots of new rice growing now



The ice cream man is always lurking around somewhere on my ride





Now riding north to the weir on the Ping



Lots of water flowing down the canal today

At the weir and no flow at all



Less water here than on previous trips and its all going down the irrigation canal



Riding back south and this Yellow Spotted Keelback doesnt seem to want to get out of the road















Getting close behind it and stamping my feet finally got it out of harms way

A bit further down the road and this Indo-Chinese rat snake wasn't so lucky and had been run over



Riding over the Ping just north of town

Sausage baguette and home made fries at Riders Corner 140 Baht

Hope it was nothing serious Colin.

Piston, rings, crankshaft, bearing and various gaskets inside the engine, all under warranty though.

500 km rode already and should have covered 1000 by monday then its an oil change and fully run in again
