Umphang Back To Mae Sot

[Captain_Slash]

The Route 1090

Total Distance 178 km

After six nights in Umphang it was time to leave, this trip I discovered a hell of a lot more from riding offroad whilst here and theres plenty of tracks I never got round to trying so plenty left for the next visit here

A few shots from just out of my guest house

First stop was Dot Com for breakfast, I asked for eggs and toast but I guess as I always have raw onions with my meals here she assumed I wanted them with my breakfast too, after frying them it wasnt too bad a mix though, 30 Baht for breakfast

Umphangs giant km marker

Now for a fun ride back to Mae Sot with just a few photo stops

Although Umphang didnt get it there was a thunderstorm close by last night and there was evidence of rain for a fair way out with a much fresher atmosphere and better visibility today

I was hoping this picture from the scenic area would be clearer than this but I guess there wasnt enough wind and rain last night

A great fun road that never fails to excite

The best pizza in town at Casa Mia for 130 Baht

Lime cheese cake for 50 Baht

Looks like you're about to head south around the national park to Kanchanaburi Colin?

Colin - I was looking around on Google Earth NW of Kanchanaburi (border area around 14 DEG north) - looks like an excellent exploring area.

Yes Phil around the Bongti area I have crossed over and rode into Burma a few years ago, theres lots out that way but I have decided to give Kanchanaburi a miss this holiday as I wouldnt get much time there.

I will have a few more days in Mae Sot then get back to Mae Sariang to explore some more around there
