Day two please excuse can't format the page yet

Today was Day two of our trip 200 and a few miles under our belt and things starting to fall into place the biking is good from our start this morning which was reminiscent of a MCC  Lands end trial  section only down hill.
Yesterday I failed the uphill in a big way Getting severely cramped in my hands to such an extent that I just had to stop, I did make it in the end but several minutes after Mike and Tant 
Our accommodation was basic or perhaps rustic would be a better description nice hot stone clad showers and toilets. The bedroom was on the upper floor of a traditional stilted house. I went bed at about 8:00 pm following a few glasses of rice wine and straight to sleep and had what I thought was a really good night sleep but had actuality woken at 11:30 pm an that was on a hard two inch mattress.
Today we had a great ride heading south some unfortunately on dual Carriageways and bigger roads but interesting enough
Its really interesting how the  locals use their motorcycles and I have started to try and take pictures showing how they are being used as a work horse and will put as many on the blog as I can







this Girl was cycling from North to South following our route
met uncle Jo in a field looking after his buffalo he was infectiously happy
