This is what an average road of Timor looks like in rainy season. This one in particular goes from Gleno to Letefoho. And there is even some bus traffic here. But I for one heavily enjoy my off road experience in Timor and use every opportunity to go search for some extra ankle deep mud for my bike. I truly believe that off-road traveling in Timor has got huge potential with due management and proper organisation but unfortunately nobody in the Ministry of Tourism knows shit about developing new tourist destinations. For them it’s more important to attend a neverending range of International conferences and exhibitions abroad. Fuck, I’ve yet to find a person in Timor having a good opinion of the Ministry of Tourism. Just a bunch of incompetent old farts.
