The Road Trip of Xgrind and AngKuGuay: Day 3

Due to limited internet and Angkuguay posting his entry with my lappy, so I shall post this entry with my trusty N95.

After a good night rest at the hotel, we finally set off for Chiang Mai today. We moved on to Lampang all the way to Chiang Mai via Highway 1. Some part of the highway are very very bumpy, so much that we are worried that the suspension will be screwed as a result. However most of the road are pretty smooth and the ride was so much more scenic as we are moving thru the mountain roads. Not to mention that the climate is uber excellent. As a result, we stopped by to take photos so you will be able to see them on my Flickr site.

About 200km ride, we finally arrived at Chiang Mai. As this city is a tourism spot, we have no problem finding a place to stay, abeit a bit expensive. As today is New Year's eve, everyone in the city are in the festive mood and celebrating so I guess we came at the right timing. At the hotel, a German couple came to look at our bikes and got to know that he is a Fazer rider as well. So far I've met 2 Fazer riders so far, one from Germany and one from Italy. That goes to show how popular Fazer is haha.

Tomorrow we will be heading for more scenic and gruelling ride for Northern Thailand border.

Lastly, happy new year to everyone who read this entry! Huat ah!
