Nan 16-3-15 Two Ride Offroad From Mae Charim To Nan

[Captain_Slash]

Total distance 110 km

The riders
Steve Honda CRF 250L
Colin Kawasaki KLX 150

Bit of a late start then it was off to Mae Charim to tidy a few loose ends up







Rather a lot of workers here today

Lots of bikes too







We find some new unmapped tracks and ride further on an already partly mapped one

Steve gunning it up the hill







The end of this track









Plenty more dust was chucked up today



Another track ends here

A bit of a traffic jam at this point



Bulldust alleyway, it was steep and dusty but no problems getting up or down it





Down in a village and this kind lady brings us out cold water

The stream bed is the track for a while but not much water in it now





Now on the top and the track that goes over the mountain back to Nan



Someone has parked their bike in the middle of the main road

We try out a side track but a fallen tree halts progress.
We came across a few that had gone over, some by burning

Greenery as we descend closer to Nan.
A few loose ends tidied up and another trip over the mountains, perhaps I should start leading tours over this route

This is my 3 rd day riding with Colin and I can say today had everything you like on a good dirt track 3 km of river riding , some good steep hills loads of Single Forest tracks like keeping cool hehe a very good day and only 1 lay down today ! After yesterday I am happy , so I recommend keeping this track on your list if you are over in Nan 10/10
Big thanks Colin in sharing this track with me .

Nice find Col.

That 1168 to Mae Charim is a real gem on a big road bike too.
