leaving Kanachanaburi bright and not too early (due to the two young o;d men sleeping in), brings us to the flat plains of rice fields along the highway 321 , 324 and R 1 & R 32. Not too exciting an ride due to the flat terrain. Our 1st stop for fuel at the rest area brings us to the ever present Amazon cafe for our 1st drink of the day..ice mocha, freezing cholate and all the good stuff.
Our first ciggy stop at an abondon mini supermart
Guys looking good for the day and for the camera...
The interesting stretch of last 52 km after the turn off from Tak to Mae Sot
Jimm setting up his movie camera but this didn't last long as the raini was ever present along the route thus preventing the old men from letting loose on the twisties
one of the numerous check point along the route as the Myanmar border is only 5 km from the town of Mae Sot.
stalls after the 2nd check point
Mae Sot not an exciting place but a stop nonetheless as the Myanmar-Thai friendship bridge is just 5 km away
our lunch stop
riding thru Mae Sot town in search of Ban Thai
