From this spot on the Burma Border we will depart at 11:AM on the 9th annual Odyssey of Endurance as we will cycle completely across Thailand, never stopping for meals or rest. We will also accomplish this amazing feat without the use of performance enhancing drugs. This challenge is usually met by the average bicycle rider in about one hour as the total distance across Thailand at this point on the map is only about 11km as the crow flies. Since we’ll always be on tarmac, the total distance will be about 21km. We will finish the Odyssey of Endurance at the Royal Air Force recreation beach at Ao Manao where there is always a great variety of Thai entrees amongst the many vendors in the food court where one can also find ice cold beer and other unimportant beverages.
