Monday 14th January, Tha Khaek.
Today’s ride, according to the plan drawn up before I left home, was for a 130km ride. It seemed doable in my study 18 months ago. After the last couple of weeks Experience I decided to take a Tuk Tuk for the first few kilometres.
Then a really good ride of 95km.
It’s always really interesting the first few days in a new country, new scenery, culture, money, history, politics…. and finding out how things work here.
Roads are very poor.
Unfortunately this was in Laotian Kip where the exchange rate is 11,000 to £1.
