This was our longest day, but thankfully the temperature remained fairly mild early on. We set off down the main highway, so the road was fast and sealed. The day got progressively hotter but the riders were well fed and watered by our support crew. We had a picnic lunch at a small shelter, before setting off on the final 40km. The ride finished at the beachside town of Kep, and after a long day of riding we were glad to see the sea coming toward us. Cambodia is very flat, but the last 300m to the resort was up a steep gravel climb, which was enough to turn all our legs to jelly by the finish. The ride was exactly 100km, which was the longest distance many of the riders had ever ridden.
We had a delicious meal at a seafood restaurant in town.
