BKOKVLX Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Whats the reason for several innocent posts asking after the success of this event being deleted? Thanks for asking because I was trying to figure out if I am reading the wrong thread. Deletion is usually not a good sign. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetley Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Yes, I was all up for going along and looking forward to it as I live just north of Kanchanaburi but unfortunately it coincided with a trip back to blighty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazmlb Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Sounds like it was spectacularly good or spectacularly bad...put us out of our misery. Whilst this was the first event and there wasnt quite the turnout as expected a great weekend was had by those who attended and there was a generous amount raised for the FFC, donations can still be made thru the DMC website and there are some items that will be auctioned to raise further funds for the FFC.

Thanks for letting us know how it went Baz. Man, with the strange silence I was thinking somebody crashed or something terrible. Glad to hear a generous amounts was raised for the orphans at Moo Baan Dek. Ride On! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear that folks. You should have taken a leaf out of these in Jan 2007 and stayed in town, much better than in the middle of nowhere:- Most of the bikes Pano photo More photos Kan be found here Yours truly, Kan Win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybike Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 surley some one has pictures of the event ??? there was two other big events on the same weekend too ..ayudthaya bike week and sisaket .......maybe next time around try to get a weekend that is free ...and also register the event with siam motorcycle association...this will guarantee a huge turnout if you do this...www.smca.ob.tc they have a very high reputation which helps when it comes to biker events that involve charity work.....jumin of the burapa mc is the president of the association......again i dont know everything but just trying to give ye a few tips for success..cheers barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) Hi guys. A few pictures from the event. I personally would like to thank all those who attended and sponsored the event. I would also like to thank the Xen Hideaway Resort for their tremendous effort in helping get this event ready. Ok here are a few event pictures courtesy of The Sam Phran Riders from Nakhon Pathom a fantastic group of people, who i'm proud to know. lovely Heineken girls Happy but cold 9 Armies Mc. My happy Mech from SP riders witha blue cocktail to go with his jacket MMMMMMMM Coyotes. mmmmmm more Coyotes and a singer coyotes yum,yum. Sam Phran riders having a laugh Sam Phran riders MULTI NATIONAL crew. Xen resort is set right next to the river I agree with what Barry bike has stated. I was told that Burapa Mc was behind us on this event. So having never heard of the www.smca.ob.tc (I'm not an MC type of guy). I have to presume the event was on their website. Any way i hope you enjoy the pictures. As and when more become available i will post. Thanks Allan Kan. nice pano picture of the other 2007 Kanch event. If i had thought of getting a group bike shot we wouldn't have needed as much space, that's for sure. Edited November 23, 2009 by thaicbr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RusticCharm Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 So what was with the strangely now deleted Drama Queen post going on about how you were 'lost for words' (apparently not) and would leave it for Chris to comment? So how many turned up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wondered when you would put your oar in. "So how many turned up?" Well you didn't ya stingy bastard that i know. I was asked to post some pictures so i did. The Venue was excellent (bit out of the way) but a beautiful setting, the stage and band were superb. and the people that went enjoyed themselves. So for that the event was a success. The date was wrong for sure. BUT we all live and learn. Edited November 24, 2009 by thaicbr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
