What it is

The start and the finish. Both roads out of it — 107 to the north, 108 to the south — are the loop's two ends.

The long version

Inference — on a page about the loop, Chiang Mai is rental, spares, helmet shops, and the place the suitcase sits for four days.

One measured fact: across four burning seasons Chiang Mai's March mean PM2.5 is 37.8 µg/m³, higher than any town on the circuit. The air improves as you leave.

Now

Everything the rest of the circuit does not have: tyres in stock, a dealer for most brands, and a hospital that does not need a transfer.
