You step off the longtail into a hush of palms and rubber trees; damp earth gives way to a narrow dirt track and the low, patient grunts of water buffalo in mud. The sound of pedaling and distant waves threads the morning as you roll past rice paddies, a wood-stilt village and fishermen repairing nets.
