More Info…
There are no guarantees when doing a road trip here that the agenda will be easier or more difficult than previous years. The driving conditions here at best are challenging. Also daily distances achievable are not to be underestimated. A long 8-9 hour day here is only 200 km and that’s hard work. Most rides are estimated to be about 150 km’s per day, some are less and a couple maybe up to the 200 km mark. For most riders this is enough and at the end of the day, it’s primarily a holiday of course. Also with 5-6 hour days the rides are a lot more leisurely, we can take more scenic roads, we have more time for pics and photo stops and it means we usually arrive in time for the Happy Hours at the bars 🙂
As usual, sometimes we will be off the beaten track and with this the April ride also focuses more on some countryside rides, beach R & R as well as some scenic scootering and taking in national parks, floating markets, ancient temples, mangrove forests ,great food , boat trips and stunning beaches.
