Distance 142 km
North of Mae Ramat and the 105 quietens down
I left a waypoint here on the ride down from Mae Sariang so I could knew where to find it on Google Earth, according to GE I am wasting my time hoping to link up but I need to try it
My first water crossing
Once through the water its a dry bumpy track
I am not alone at this point
I walked this first and decided not to try it today as the water was a bit too deep, with a riding buddy to help if needed I would have gone for it but didnt want to risk drowning the bike alone
This was the track that carried on but I expect with countless more water crossings
Time to ride back, I was going to ride to where the track ended north east of here but other tracks were located riding back along the 105 and I thought it was a better idea to go there first thing in the morning rather than at nearly midday
A few tracks that are not on the map were explored today
Plenty of goats to keep me company
The rack is a useful washing line, I was hoping the boots would dry out riding in the hot weather but they were still soaked when I got home
Thats the end of this track
I wasnt expecting any of these to go and link up and they didnt
The goatman appears
Another track and more water
I am in a shelter enjoying my lunch, the temperature is warmer here than I am used to
Lots of traffic pass while I am eating
A reservoir up here that is only three years old
More water to ride through
I didnt see any point in continuing as there didnt appear to be a track except the riverbed
At least the ducks are happy
I am wondering how much water is being held back by the weir
I ride to the top and theres nothing in reserve
A bit more exploring through the water then I ride back
Its a lot drier out here
I think this asphalt is new since my last trip here, it still shows on the GPS map as unpaved
I take the new 130 to the second friendship bridge
I am actually on the bridge here but its blocked off and I dont think the armed soldiers will be too happy if I go any further into no mans land
The infra structure is built but it doesnt look like it will be open in the near future, there is no one here
