    In my 20 plus years i have ridden around all of Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia, Vietnam and some of northern Laos. Besides off road or green laning only one small scrape lane splitting in Bangkok. What is dangerous is racing around, no helmet, maybe drunk, maybe zero experience of riding.

    They are, it takes them 6 weeks after arrest to go to the prison to start dealing with whatever the problem is. A friend of mine was twice held, i was his only contact and on both occasions the embassy took 6 weeks to contact him and then me.

    Yesterday I arrived back home in Pattaya from Bangkok after 132 days riding and 19,250km. There was just one puncture at the start of the ride, which was a slow puncture so easy to get repaired. I started the trip with a new set of tyres and replaced them one time on route. I had the bike serviced 2 times with a service now due. I had weld repairs to the tool box 4 times and always at a local shop and done quickly. Luckily only one accident, I was not hurt and the motorbike had no damage. There is a screenshot of almost all of my trip in the photos. https://www.relive.com/view/vYvEGZJ87w6

    Today, after taking some photos of the garden at my hotel I went riding the tracks alongside irrigation channels in Kanchanaburi. I have ridden them before, but always nice to ride. https://www.relive.com/view/vMq5wG7m28O

    Last night I sat in a great seafood restaurant in Lang Suan, Maya, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/orAymysaocyPUSP6A I watched a wonderful sunset with great food and drink. This morning I left Lang Suan to ride to Ban Krut, I only stopped once, at Arunotai Beach, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/AJR6WXcvDoVGi6kD8 The place I usually stay was full, so I tried Sisina Resort, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/eHCwESopPh1eW4wV8 A nice place set back from the beach, worth a look if staying here. https://www.relive.com/view/vE6J5d5WgxO

    Today I rode north from Ao Nang to Lang Suan, a 284km ride. I only made one stop, Model ship Chakri Naruebet, Prince of Chumphon, Pak Nam Lang Suan, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/ac64s8sHeFK9u2UL7 There are storms about, I can hear the thunder, but in my room, so no problem. https://www.relive.com/view/vevY7VojdJ6

    I left Songkla today heading towards Krabi, on route I stopped at Huai Nam Sai Reservoir, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/BzTdwzBqmi1V4xW26 When there I changed my mind and headed for Trang, cutting a few hours off of my ride. https://www.relive.com/view/vNOPDBRzKYO

    I left Betong today and started riding north, there were plenty of shower storms around, but I managed to miss them. I stopped at Highway Viewpoint, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/AaTn1hLXdd7DN3zFA Riding along the coast to Songkla I stopped at an unnamed beach, here. https://maps.app.goo.gl/qaEPA8Rt53ujjxCW8 It was very windy with sand in the wind. A little less wind you could fly a hang glider or paraglider off the sand dune edge. A little further up the coast workmen were cutting down trees and the road was blocked for a while. It was then a straight ride into town. https://www.relive.com/view/vdvm48w19Nq
