Bangkok to Shangri-La in China
 
This gruelling 14 day Adventure Motorcycling in Asia started for me in Ban Pong in Ratchaburi Thailand, then heading north to Phitsanulok, Phrae, Chiang Rai, crossing into Myanmar for the markets at Tachileik, then onto Chiang Klong, Lao border crossing at Huay Xai, then entering China and continueing to Muang Sing, Xishuangbanna, Lacang, Lincang, Dali, Lijang, and the final destination in the mountains of Shangri-La and snow.

Hell that was a mouthfull, in basic terms, starting 70km west of Bangkok, noth to the top of Thailand, across the top to the Laos border, then across Laos to the China border then north west into China towards Tibet.

The return route saw over 5500k traveled on my Ducati Hyperstrada 821 with a group of 25 bikes, two support vehicles, including the necessary Chinese guide.

Temperates leaving Thailand started at 35deg, and at the coldest point in the trip saw it drop all the way down to -11 and in the snow at the top of Bluemoon Valley at an altitude of 4600mtrs.

The whole journey has been turned in to a rough documentary on Youtube. I say rough because I wanted it to show the exhaustion I went through.
