Ride For Cambodia?

Have a safe and fun ride guys.
I feel a trend with the Moon Shine thing. How many will you get pics of while there??? I bet bunches. :>)
 
We rode to Siem Reap (350km). Pot holes and construction got better as we distanced ourselves from Phnom Penh. Raven booked nice room and navigated too! We had to brake hard for a few cows. Danny fouled a plug and the local mechanics had him going in short order.
 
Well, we made it to The Home Sweet Home Hotel in Siem Reap after a hot rough and dirty ride with a few minor issues. The doorman at Phenom Penh said he rode the same 300+ Km ride in a day once...never again. I enjoyed it for the constant activity on the road. Always something to watch out for, always something to see, but I can understand a non LD scooter rider not enjoying all the drama of construction, animals darting out, fires, traffic, thick dust and smoke.
We are tired but George managed a run around the neighborhood before taking his shower. Again, there were a number of times I wish the camera or video was ready for the shot.
Raven did a great job of navigating us to the Hotel and if it weren't for my bike needing a new spark plug at about noon today, we would have arrived in daylight.:)

With all the hassles of getting my rims replaced, I decided to go with the two good road tires with a bit of an open tread pattern that were on the rims that they gave me. They were fine today which means they'll be fine for the rest of the two weeks.

^OK everyone in the background is going look at those goofy American's haha. Y'all look like you are having a blast. Kinda like Disney World without the roller coasters. Be safe on those scooters wouldn't want some of my favorite people getting hurt by speeding to fast.

TB, you shorely don't have to worry about "our" scooters going too fast.:D However, I'm sure they'll go fast enuff to kill us.

This image is the Stairway to Heaven at the main tower at Angkor Wat. It is very steep and I just wondered if anyone should fall, how many would go back down with them?
This is only a test.....Danny is on my butt for not posting enuff??? He's trying to improve my file posting skills and I appreciate it but it is taking away from my beer drinking time. Tomorrow we are getting up early for a sunrise pic at the big temple, our tuk tuk is pre-arranged.
 
Food is fine, just finished a simple but delicious plate of pork, veggies and rice with the HOT sauce on the side at the Home Sweet Home Hotel.
This place asks everyone to remove their shoes before entering. They are always sweeping the floor too. I like it here at $12 per night with a full hot breakfast from a menu.

Plenty of western travelers through here. We are getting a lot of STOC Tag shots.
 
Angor Wat is over 1000 Years old. Built in 12th century... (so they claimed)
