Last ride before heading to Indo
Im off to Indonesia with my bro for an awesome month of surfing as I wrote about on the last post. All week has been spent getting organised, checking the boards, getting suncream, buying wax, checking leashes and fins. Then there is all the bullshit paperwork around travel these days, covid insurance, PCR tests, vaccine certificates, proof of funds, onward tickets, hotel bookings and stupid location tracking apps to download and register with. God what a total pain in the ass.
But any all is sorted and I'm safely on my way. Stuck in Bangkok for a night due to poor flight connectivity between Phuket and Jakarta (the Indo capital) Little bit of time on my hands so thought a quick steem post would be a good way to while away an hour with a cold beer! Last few days were hectic but I did find time for a bike ride with my bro Lee lee.
I love riding with Lee as his attitude is just like mine. We dont have fancy bikes or fancy gear. We dont really give a crap about anything except having fun, talking shit and then drinking loads of beer after the ride hence negating any of the calories we burned on the ride.
On this ride we found something pretty weird and kind of unsettling - a pile of cow skeletons that had obviously been burned in a giant fire. They were all heaped together as if in some kind of sacrificial ceremony. It was in a very remote part of the mountains up some steep trails that neither of us had explored before.....
Lee in true form said cmon bro - get a photo of me next to the rotting carcasses. He is such a dick hahaha. Except for that weird find we had a great ride and discovered whole new trails. No more biking for the next few weeks but I will be sure to update you all with surf stories as often as I can over the next month.
I'm jobiker and I'm vegetarian!
