"The tragedy in life doesn't lie in not reaching you goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach..." - Benjamin Mays

Day 03: 20/10/2012 (Saturday)
Route: Cha-am – Kamphaeng Saen detour – Udon Thani
Distance: 795 km
Hotel: Ban Chiang Hotel, Udon Thani

(2 riders will ride home...)

We had breakfast of bread and tuna in the hotel room. Azim and Chon split from the gang and rode back to KL. Seven bikes headed towards Udon Thani, a border town between Thailand and Laos. We took a detoured route to avoid entering Bangkok but there was still a massive traffic jam on the way, made worse by road repairs and accidents.

(Accident causing massive traffic jam...)

We stopped at a Masjid Al-Ridwan at Chorat for solat and we were served a hefty lunch by the Masjid people. We reached Udon Thani around 2230 and had a late dinner at a muslim restaurant near a mosque. Checked in Ban Chiang Hotel and my body was so heaty that I slept sweating wet.
