Sorry for not writing for a while- not really had much to say. Spent a week in Penang with some great people- lots of cyclists (not all bike nerds)(I consider myself amongst them!). Mainly spent my time eating curry, the best Indian food I've ever eaten- and so cheap!
Then I had 2days in Bangkok where I picked up the bike- had it serviced, and repaired some little things- for the bargain price of 13£!! Then took the train out of the city to start riding again. Today was my first day back in the saddle- started badly, I've been feeling a bit unwell for the past few days and the coffee I had with my breakfast really made me feel ill all morning. So I set off about 8.30 feeling very nauseous managed to get about 25k down the road before I had to stop. Had some water and a cool down in tesco, after an hr or so I started to feel human again and set out. Not really realising the distance I had set myself for the day. Any way I cycled, and cycled and cycled.... 95k all in! In 39o heat- I felt like I was going to die when I got to my destination Prachuap Khiri Khan. Found a lovely little b&b to stay in, and they had the royal wedding on the TV. Good job really cos I didn't know it's Friday today so would have missed it! Made me feel a little bit home sick- a good wedding always makes me a little emotional! The town I'm in now seems quite nice think I'll stay for a day or so before continuing south.
