I know people who do like camping, when young i did too. I also lived in one for quite a while, not too keen to do so again, i like my comforts ???? But riding of course i'm open to ideas. ????

Today my ride was south from Chiang Mai to road R3033 towards Ban Khun Pae. From here the road turned to farmers track. I followed this for about 5km before deciding to turn back. The track was getting harder and it was still damp in the forested areas making it a little slippery. But the issue was I had no idea at all how far the track went or its condition. I decided to return and road up toward Doi Inthanon on R1009 and R1284 taking the scenic route back to Chiang Mai. If anyone has ridden R3033 through to the next good roads in the north please advice on how difficult it would be on the CT125. https://www.relive.cc/view/vxOQ41WozMv

Today’s ride was a loop via Mae Ngat Dam, Ban Paa Khao Lam A busy road leaving Chiang Mai this morning that go quiet when I turned of towards Mae Ngat Dam. Where you can ride up to the top to take the views in. https://goo.gl/maps/QPA4nTwYUkPbRmfCA From there I rode to R3052 which is a narrow road through the jungle with many Elephant camps along it. I turned north to Ban Paa Khao Lam which is a single track road that slowly turned poor road and cay and sand tracks. It was about 34km of green laning there and back. I then continued along R3052 to R1095 and R3009 back to Chiang Mai, a wonderful days riding. https://goo.gl/maps/DMzxLz3KgE3Apkti6 https://www.relive.cc/view/v36A39njVZv

An easy ride after having my Sena headset repaired today (Chang Moto sorted it for free, great service) to the suspension bridge Mae Kuang Dam, Chiang Mai. The route in was confusing as due to high water levels I had to ride a different track in. I intended to cross the bridge and continue on a bigger loop, but the were signs stating the road was closed for building work. https://goo.gl/maps/SxZj1GWnHWqoBdDT6

If you pass Doi Pui viewpoint eventually it turns to rough track, if you continue you come out at Huay Tueng Thao Reservoir.

Today was my first day back on the bike since my fall. I rode up to Doi Pui viewpoint Chiang Mai, and carried on until the road turned to track and then doubled back. Good views but Thailand’s highest point Doi Inthanon was hidden by clouds. https://goo.gl/maps/rX6HTzuqqvasWeV37

The riding is not an issue, off road riding is tiring as i'm not used it.

I actually carry a lot, camera, laptop, kettle ..............besides clothing and normal travel things. But i tend to ride to a city, then go out exploring taking just a camera and basic things. It works for me and at least now i can't ride i have my laptop and comforts instead of nothing to help pass the time.

I can and have fallen off a bike in just about anyway ???? The Thai farmers in the mountains always manage to go anywhere they want, follow their example.
-
Thanks, yes not fun at all, and sure i will continue as soon as i can.
