I get up early, as I know it's going to be a long one.
MoreLang Suan's small, the rollout's easy: under the rail line, an immediate right, and keep on riding.
MoreLang Suan's a tiny bit farther south than Rach Gia, at just under 10 degrees north.
MoreI get up at 6:20am to watch the sunrise over the sea. I'm not the first up.
MoreToday's a highway day, but I manage to clock quite a few kilometres off it, and those that are on it are painless.
MoreToday is a pleasant surprise of a ride, only marred a little by poor food planning.
MoreNo main highway today. It's good to have a break from the noise.
MoreBangkok's been the second stage of getting some rest and stability after so many kilometres. I spend my time running a few errands and eating, sleeping and rejigging my itinerary. Now it's time to get on the road again and actually start aiming at Singapore.
MoreGonna be a short one today. I demolish three bananas for breakfast and roll out.
More...but the sun's not going to stay up for me.
MoreI spend a few kilometres getting out of Chanthaburi and snaking north to get on highway 3, and then most of the day is a steady grind along it.
MoreToday I finally manage to get back on the bike. I've been a week in Trat feeling under the weather.
MoreDrunkenly tottering older female yank, Bond orchestra style horns and drums, a tribe of Germans, a polite Polish couple, and a Brit in an Hawaiian shirt that's bordering on obscene.
MoreWhy did the cyclist cross the road? Because Thailand drives on the left.
MoreThis is my last full day in Cambodia. I head along route 57 to Pailin, a small provincial town that lies 19km short of the Thai border.
MoreAfter an easy, smooth day yesterday, today's the opposite: highway 5 is rather bumpy, and I'm going into the wind for most of the ride.
More49, 42, 42, 44, 43. These are the rolling times in minutes of all of today's 20 kilometre blocks. This is what happens when the wind is on your side and the surface is golden.
MoreI'm well aware that my tolerance level for temples and ruins can be rather low. Ruined temples? Yep, turns out similar. I chose to get the one day ticket for the Angkor Archeological Park, and it was the right decision.
MoreLong day. First 20km goes in 50 minutes, as does the second, which is a reassuring start. I hit the Coke early, but it doesn't quite hit the spot.
MoreHad a chat with Mrs Chen this morning. She said she was born in Cambodia, but her ancestral home is near Shantou in eastern Guangdong province.
