So again I've been s*** with keeping up with the blog!! I did 2 days of cycling to get out of cambodia, it was not as bad as I was fearing, as with most things, the anticipation is always worse than actually doing it. I had 2 very easy days really, just 60k each day. On the first day Battambang to sisophong I met up with a fellow cyclist- quite unfriendly really, which was a little disappointing. A japanese chap, who made it quite clear he was not interested in having a cycling partner. So after only about 10 mins of cycling together we parted company. Found a place to stay in sisophong, yes the brothel for those of you who follow my facebook and twitter. Was not a bad place really, and surprisingly no noise from the neighbours- always a bonus. The 2nd day for the first time since I started I wore the same clothes 2days in a row- no problem for me- I'm happy to wallow in my own sweat- didn't think ahead at all!!! I arrived at the boarder with Thailand around 12, after 60k, sweaty, fine- I didn't care.... I then had the choice of staying at the backwater boarder town over night, or getting the train to Bangkok straight away. Chose to get on the 7hr train, error. Firstly my cycling shoes are not the most comfortable, and have developed an interesting fragrance, which I only discovered when I took the off on the crowded train.... Straight back on don't worry! But then as the journey went on I became aware that no one was sitting next to me, on what was a very busy train..... Um? Yes I smelt like I'd been cycling in the same clothed for 2days... Lesson learnt- if you need space on the train wear sweaty clothes!
Spent 4 days in Bangkok on khao San Rd, it's party central. Could be anywhere in the world, just drunken Brits and aussies with too much skin on show. Had to take the bike across town to where it's being stored whilst im in KL- the most terrifying ride of my life through the streets of Bangkok, map in one hand trying to negotiate the traffic etc! Aagghh.

Next stop KL for the grandprix
