The last few months I've made several runs to Phayao from Chiang Khong & return, hooking up with Dave DKT & Heineken.
Heineken lives just of Thoeng &B Dave DKT in Dok Kham Thai.
Over the course of a few coldies we've sometimes discussed the shortest & the quickest time between the 2 towns.
And the winners are
Shortest 1
Chiang Khong - R1020 - Thoeng - R1128 - Pa Daet - R1202 - Phayao
Shortest 2
Chiang Khong - R1020 - Thoeng - R1128 - Pa Daet - R1126 - R4024 - R1021
Shortest 3
Chiang Khong - R1020 - Thoeng - R1021 - Chiang Kham - R1021- Phayao
Quickest
Chiang Khong - Paradise Road R1290 - Chiang Rai bypass R1063 - R131 - R1 - Phayao.
Longer it maybe, but you can carry much more speed on the dual carriageway, & for me it is a lot safer with less villages.
Check it out sometime.
Cheers Heineken & Dave DKT.
