Ayutthaya and wheels are turning for 2018

We couldn’t have picked a better place to start our cycle adventure and get our Asian mojo ticking again.

We were both a little jaded on arriving so pleased we spent 3 days in Ayutthaya with the most friendly people, wonderful food, in the incredibly laid back old capital city of Ayutthaya, trying to acclimatise to the high 30deg temps.

We stayed at the same guesthouse as 2016 which gave us the perfect opportunity to set up the bikes and get everything sorted for the adventure ahead.

So on the road early making our way for the next 7-10 days to the Cambodian border with no idea what to expect along the way.

However we soon found out we were on several relatively busy highways but great shoulder and courteous drivers.

We thought we were in for a 40km day but pushed on a bit further as couldn’t find any where to crash. At the 56km mark we stumbled upon a dusty lane way with a Thai sign that looked like it maybe accommodation……and bingo it was!Best bonus is eats and drinks close by and this aircon room with extra hard bed and wifi setting us back only 390b (nz$17).

So resting up before wheels turn again tomorrow. Awesome to be moving forward and having the adventure underway.
