The route 105
Total distance 204 km
I ride out of town heading east along the 105 then after about 50 km take a right where these strawberries are growing
This asphalt road that I havent been on for a few years just goes for a few km then stops at the top of a hill
I dont think its ever going to be extended
I ride around exploring all the paved surface but these locked gates at N16 45.458 E098 56.291 prevented me from riding on.
Just the other side is Ban Muser school and village
I ride back towards the 105 to take the other entrance in
Just before reaching the 105 I take a right onto a dirt track starting at N16 45.596 E098 55.488
Dirt finishes at N16 45.999 E098 55.866 where I reach the other road and its a paved surface for a few km
Dirt starts and finishes at N16 44.401 E098 56.953
I pass through a village at N16 43.302 E098 57.651
Not too difficult a surface and its mainly out in the sun which is pleasant
Good views all the way but especially here
Does anyone know what those numbers and letters on the second row up mean?
I am guessing that tree is what those two signs were talking about
Finally I reach a village, I thought there had to be one out here as I passed a couple of laden trucks heading this way
These were all at a shop that sold food and drinks plus had a fuel handpump at N16 36.783 E099 01.079
Quite a large village and a Thai from Chiang Mai was here singing at some Christian event here tonight
Getting ready for the event
I ride on but was told the road breaks up after a short while
It is a lot harder going now thats for sure
Still great scenery though
I decide to call it a day here as time is getting on and the track is well rutted and slow going now.
The GPS shows it going on for probably about 8 km but it would take a while if the track is in this state, perhaps some other time I will explore it but earlier in the day
Rutted, wet and slippery, not a good combination
This guy comes along, I ask if I can get to Mae Sot by carrying on and am told no you must go back
I will try it again sometime because the track heads towards a track that I rode last year NE off the 1090 and it would be brilliant if it did loop across
On the ride back and a few workers out in the fields
Beef curry, rice, roti and salad for 75 Baht at the Tea House
Followed by this delicious treat from the market for 25 Baht, it was filling and probably fattening but who cares
