Yes quite amusing...but someone in the wave machine was shouting out "Bow Bow Bow"
no not the bow of a ship but Thai for "gently" or in other words take it easy slow down, the driver took no notice.????

They also "forgot" to remove tariffs from imported solar panels and equipment, made it difficult for private individuals to go solar then removed the incentives of selling electricity back to the grid from those who jumped through all the hoops...there should be solar panels on every roof in Thailand a massive free source of energy just going to waste.

3 dimensional zebra crossing.
They tried them already..but seems it was just a short term fad...maybe the paint didn't last very long
just like the paint used for other road markings either faded or covered in grime not that anyone pays much attention to them anyway.

Totally agree they just give unwary pedestrians a false sense of security.

There could be ants or other critters nesting in a power socket or the other fuses/circuit breakers causing a slight short to earth and tripping the "ground fault" breaker.
or something is still wet from the rain maybe up in the roof space where tangles of wires live ?

I mock the "incredible" figures provided by the "government"
my country are at least providing "credible" figures..
yes mistakes where made especially in elderly care homes.
The death rate has fallen dramatically.
New cases up... yes there are more because we are testing more, the more you test the more you find.
Deaths.... see a flat line after the "first wave"

Waves seem underpowered to me, I'm always accelerating round them at traffic lights
I suspect that's more to do with the rider than the Wave being "underpowered" you on the auto scooter will
have (in most cases) an acceleration advantage over a geared bike of the same engine size but loose out in the mid to top speed.

Absolutely 100% agreed.

Come back at the end of the northern winter and we will revisit. Its well documented that most of the current end of summer infection are mostly in young people hence the lower death rate.
There is a "normal" rise in deaths during the winter.
It will be "interesting" to see how much the WuFlu virus
increases the numbers this year and also how they (those reporting the debacle) separate deaths from WuFlu VS death from the seasonal Flu that claims many thousands every year.

A 1st grader assignment > Spot the difference in the graphs between the initial covid-19 pandemic and the dreadful Second Genocide Wave.
More testing results in finding more infections but "strangely" the death rate is flat lined ? perhaps the people who where most susceptible to the virus (old and/or with other life threatening diseases) have already died, leaving the remaining population who do indeed catch the virus but suffer only mild to middling symptoms the hospitals now know how to much more effectively care for patients but
of course some poor souls will catch it and still die even if they are young fit and healthy.

I'm always concerned about going A over T if the front wheel grips too well when I am braking.
Done that once on a racing bicycle going down a hill ????
I've never done a stoppie and a motorbike but have felt the rear wheel go very light under hard braking.
Here how to do a "Stoppie" ( )

Yes arrested for murder in Thailand but somehow made it back to Ireland !!!
QuoteIt was reported that Mr Elliott had confessed to killing Ms Onn after a drug-fuelled sex session.
He is said to have admitted binging on the powerful drug yaba – a mix of speed and caffeine – before beating Ms Onn and slashing her with a machete.
It is understood that Mr Elliott claimed he had acted in self-defence and instructed his lawyer to claim diminished responsibility due to the level of drugs in his system at the time of the killing.

Wave better than a scoot IMHO brakes are what they are with any bike you get,
With the wave you also can use the gears for engine braking while going down Doi Inthanon.

Can't edit the above.
The person shouting Bow Bow Bow or slow down then went on to say
"if you drive like that they will criticise us" by that time the wave machine had entered shallow waters.
