Brastagi to Parapet (Lake Toba)

It was damp and grey at the start of today's ride from Brasgati to parapet (lake toba) so we transferred the one set of batteries from the camera to the light, therefore there are no photos but I do have some statistics from my genius little computer

113.08km traveled
5:06:31 ride time
60.1 maximum
22.1 average
1 x pork and rice dish, served by some shy kids.  It was accompanied by some strange green vegetable which tasted like you had always wanted spinach to taste like.
6 Litre of aqua
1 Litre of pocari sweat
1 boat ride for 7000rph (50p)
1 kopiko (not finished) and 1 x some strange wheat biscuit:



Pretty fantastic riding for most of the day apart from one section which was busy.  The last 30 kms were some of the best riding I've experienced, a 4km climb with loads of switch-backs followed by an undulating and mostly downhill section into parapet.  The roads, thankfully, were great for the whole day.

Now we are doing nothing in the amazing lake toba.  It is overcast but still 30degrees with the odd burst of sun , as usual you just have to open your door to be impressed; the view from the room:

this is not from our room, but from down the road:

Tomorrow we are going to cycle around it.
