Trying this trip again and hope to make it a bit further this time but not sure it will go smoothly.
This time my concern is fuel. It seems Thai people think that the war in Iran will cause a fuel shortage so Thai people are out stocking up on fuel like Americans stock up on toilet paper.
The first place I stopped was out of the fuel I run in my bike but the next gas station about 5k down the road filled my small tank.
I am going to try and fill my tank at the half full stage on this trip. That means I will be stopping a lot for gas.
I stopped where I aborted my last trip and had to wait for at least 20 minutes with each pump filling one of these big barrels.
Even though I was a bit concerned I made it over 400K on my first day of travel never going below a 1/3 of a tank.
I spent the first night in the city of Tak (ตาก). I have ridden by the city on the other side of the river but this is the first time I have stayed here.
I went out get something to eat and stopped by the river as the sun was setting and snapped a couple pictures.
I find Tak City to be a pretty little place.
