The route 1169, 1257
Total distance 143 km
Frank&Simone a German couple on an around the world trip stayed at the GH last night and we had a chat this morning before they left
A couple of well laden Honda 700 Transalps
I ride out to Santisuk and start exploring, todays dirt was
N18.92553 E100.94673 to N18.96684 E100.92991
N18.96684 E100.92991 to N18.95679 E100.92417
N18.95135 E100.92899 to N18.93861 E100.93579
N18.94709 E100.92624 to N18.93893 E100.93034
N18.93587 E100.93326 to N18.92553 E100.94673
N18.92446 E100.93707 to N18.93171 E100.92949
I hadnt gone far and I was riding on tracks not showing on the GPS
The bridge looks a bit wonky but it felt firm enough when I walked across it, I rode through the very shallow water anyway
That looks like an overflow for a reservoir up there
The water is clear
Even though it looks like oil here
The unknown reservoir that doesnt show on the GPS, as the ESRI shows the Nam Yang river flowing here I hereby name it the Huai Nam Yang Reservoir and its located at N18.94650 E100.95406
Its at least ten metres below capacity
There is a track running alongside it but I soon tire of that and ride back
I climb a bit now and have good views all around
Looking back down on the reservoir I have just left
To my surprise this unshowing track goes to the 1081 where I turn around and ride back a bit before exploring more turnings
This popular reservoir is at N18.96187 E100.94836, again not showing on the GPS and nothing to name it by either
Riding on I reach the 1081 in another place and turn around once more
Now to visit that reservoir
The Huai Khon Khaen Reservoir at N18.96247 E100.92741
Its a bit windy here and that umbrella is blowing away
Now to ride all these interlocking tracks between the 1169 and the new track I first rode today, some show on the GPS and some dont
As I make my way to the 1169 at the finish its lots of tobacco growing here
Another fun days ride over and not many dead ends today
Stuffed loin of pork, roast potatoes, brocolli and gravy at Tony's Place for 240 Baht
