Short ride today from Singhanakon to Hat Yai. We passed over the Tinsulanonda bridge which crosses the massive Songkla lake – the massive lake that stretches at least 100km up the east coast of Thailand.

The bridge stops halfway on an island called Ko Yo – not much here i think except for a giant reclining [...]

Left the ‘love shack’ at Than Phannara around 7am an headed down highway 41, but then took a left down highway 4195 towards the mountains and then onto highway 4015 – towards Nakhon Sri Thammarat!

Was a great morning through this area, great jungle/forest around, lots of little villages to pass through, some big mountains with [...]

Phunpin is a great . Little town in Surathani province. The train station where most tourists come to to make their way to get the bust to the ferries to Koh Samui.

Stopped at a roadside hotel, a.k.a a [...]

What a day!

We left Chumpon about 6.30am and got back onto the highway and spent the rest of the day riding – for 186km!

I am very surprised. I guess the 300baht [...]

6.30am left Ban Boet. Road solidly for an hour along the coastline and then went inland, picked up some sticky rice and carved our way through the jungle to Don Yang.
Riding along the coast before sunrise is a great way to start the day.
It’s really is beautiful out here, people doing their thing on their [...]

Left Prachuab Khiri Khun around 5.30am and managed to get on to the highway as the sun really got up.
Nicholas picked up some ‘meat on a stick’ and sticky rice to munch on later.

Riding in the rain – as good fun as yesterday.
Many little hills, not too bad. Possibly have more strength/stamina than yesterday.
Around lunchtime [...]

(combined from day 01’s ride)
It’s been a hard 2 days of riding, but i think we are starting to get rhythm.
Left the primo residence of Nick’s Aunty’s place at 5am, bag of left overs in hand.
The morning was interesting.
As we road the 15km to Hua Hin, the morning light started to pierce through the sky, [...]
