Thailand Exploring Tha Ton



Today was a day of self indulgence taking the new CRF out for a spin to break her in and to Join my mate Sven out on a ride on his new (my old) KLX and stop by my favourite farkle shop in Fang to get some bolts on's for the CRF.




Easy ride 260Km's total and cakes at the Charin to avoid a storm (how convenient) at the end of the day. 

Blessed with a cloudy start we made our way towards Mae Salong via the lower road, first thing i noticed was Ron was right, riding at 80 KPH you see so much more along the route, here is a collection of snaps from the day that i normally blast by without a thought and to prove you don't have to ride for day's on end to see stuff and have a great ride when it''s on your doorstep.
