Day 6 of 8 cycling days

Whoops, nearly forgot to post this as zonked after 72kms, a message before dinner, and a couple of beers! Hard to crash as 6 floors down a live duo playing to the outside restaurant! So tonight we're in Kohn Kean in a modern hotel.
Again, set off from hotel at 0730, so very cool and we had lunch around 52km I think. Most of day was either on local roads or gravel tracks in country, and beautiful green paddy fields. They seem to have a very neat network of fields here, with extensive irrigation and water pools and waterways to manage through the dry season.
At one point we had to dismount in a village due to a procession and street party for two young men who were becoming monks. The villagers were so incredibly friendly, shaking hands and taking photos of us! The due to a longish drive to hotel the cycle was capped at 72km. Tmw the route is less at 60, due to a 90 mins drive to reach next hotel.Read more
