The road to Montford Lodge, our training centre, a very steep climb and busy in both directions
in rush hour.
After two weeks in Colombo we have moved to Kandy, home of the Temple of the Tooth, whoever has the tooth relic rules Sri Lanka. Kandy is about 500m above sea level and an historic capital. It’s a beautiful place with a mountain setting, the rides from the hotel low down by the lake to the training centre at the top of a hill are hairy. The roads are very steep, narrow, and tend to wash away in the rain, they are also very busy and have regular full size busses using them. It all makes for interesting journeys.
There are a few more tourists evident here, a few tours and 5* hotels, quite good for us as we get to use the hotel pools for RS150 a day incl towel and sun lounger, very civilized.
