Today I visited Pong Leuk Karen Villiage, 30 miles into the jungle, near to the Burmese Border. I was only the 3rd westerner ever to enter the villiage. Just outside the villiage is a ranger station & a small army garison, stationed at this remote outpost in order to patrol the border.

It is now time for a new adventure. This time I have decided to raise money for Willen Hospice in Milton Keynes. The plan is to ride 2,500km through the Western Ghats of India, starting in Goa, and ridding through Karnataca, Kerala and Tamal Nardu. We will be steering clear of main roads and using local trails as far as possible and hope to find some unusual off the beaten track places. If you enjoy my blog, please make a donation at: http://www.justgiving.com/Shaun-Toms The trip is funded by myself so all proceeds will go to Willen Hospice.... full info
