Day 4. Phnom Penh to Kirrirom . 160klms

No stage of today where I wasn't in the hurt locker. Over 100 k's of trails and rutted dirt roads. Most of the group enjoyed it but I found it torturous.

To be honest I thought the ratio between joyous moments and bottom of the hole type moments would be a little more even. 

Below is one of our guides Rith sitting in a peloton that you don't see every Saturday in Perth

Came a cropper 4k from the hotel- here's what it did to the helmet.

I thought i came down quite acrobatically but the eye witness accounts and forensic evidence begged to differ

Got in at 6.15 pm , hopped in the spa , shower and  bed with 2 liters of water by 7.30. 

Is it enjoyable - no.

Is it enjoyable - yes.

You share 4 days like the last 4 with ten other people and it feels like you've known them a decade. I'd like to be able to stay up a little later and have a beer and a coherent conversation with them.

That's it for now.
