The Golden Triangle Rider

Captain_Slash · Posted: 16.02.2008, 21:57 Post subject: Cnx-Khun Tan-Mueang Pan-Cnx

I left Cnx and took the 1317 until the crossroads with the 1006 where I took the right for Mae On, then another right onto the 1229 and at the T junction a right onto the 2031, 23 km later its a left onto the 4052 for Khuntan NP and railway station. I rode through to Hang Chat to find the turn to Pang Muang railway station to try to find the road to Mueang Pan

Finally I found it and am happily on my way

Theres no road number but its a mostly okay ride

After a fair few kms I notice a blue sign telling me I am on the 4001 and I stay on here come to a T junction with the 1287, I take a left and this road eventually comes to a crossroads with the 1252. I turn left here and after a few kms its a left for Chae Son national park, I explain that I am riding to Cnx and get sent through as usual

Its a pleasant ride through here but I am noticing an unusually high amount of traffic today

As I stop to take this picture I can hear the thump of loud music from not too far away and as I ride on after a couple of kms there is something going on to my right up high above the road. There is about 1 km of parked 4 wheel drives and motorbikes plus quite a few police directing the traffic, quite what it was I didnt find out

There are a few of these along this road

Its lovely up here riding and the traffic has finished and I have the road virtually to myself again

The obligatory aerial shots

I emerge to the T junction with the 3005 and do a right then nine kms later its the 118 and a left back to Cnx.
A good ride today and another new road under the belt, the road surface was good virtually all of the time today

Good pics of roads again.

Captain Slash, that's yet another new one you've got on me.
I never knew you could ride through from Mae Takrai - Khun Tan - Hang Chat, so that's one Ive got to do in the coming months.
Have you got anymore new ones for me to check out?
And don't forget the photos, please.
