From Siem Reap to Battambong

Today we visited the PEPY ride school and I learned a lot about the practical elements of development work versus the theory and the challenges in striking a balance between the two. We took a dusty truckride to Battambong to meet with the main PEPY group today and then we went on a 20 km ride around Battambong.

We loaded up onto the Bamboo Train which are essentially two axles with a platform on top and an engine which powers the “vehicle” down unused train tracks. As the sun set, we rode back to Battambong and enjoyed a hearty dinner.

110 km tomorrow!
