    I see no reason to interact with any wild animal on purpose. https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=yellowstone+bear+scene&view=detail&mid=E82711A13A9A766542D4E82711A13A9A766542D4&FORM=VIRE

    I'm just curious if the home you live has a bearing on what's expected? i mean if you're living in very nice (expensive) home vs living in a small condo or small house in crappy village. What's the harm in giving them 500 thb for lunch money? Why make such a big deal about it?
  3. EVENKEEL
    The only advantage I can see is less money in bank required. But, please edumacate me.

    They like to take care of their family with free money, but tell them no and they can work for money sent to parents and see what happens.

    Thanks for the chuckle, I'd like to read one post from anyone who rides their MB daily the way you suggest.
  6. EVENKEEL
    I challenge you to ride MB center left lane on a road with only one lane each way at slow speeds when commuters are scurrying to work at 80-100 kmh

    I know, the nerve of those guys showing they have a mil+ to spend on toys.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/mar/24/harvard-physicist-pacific-expedition-first-interstellar-meteor?ref=upstract.com Pretty interesting, they're searching for fragmants of interstellar meteor off Papua New Guinea.

    Riding down Suk in Pattaya MB's are across the lanes. Each situation is different. The small roads i live on has heavy car commute traffic. If MB's didn't help out and stay on shoulder as they're doing 25 khp it would be more traumatic.

    I don't get the way riders have their feet sort of up high instead of down on floor board. It just seems less stable to me. As far as being irritated the old folks riding MB with side cart early in the morning like they own the road does test my patience. Love the way they just stop and socialize with vendors.

    Not many cars drive the posted speed so bunch of dicks around.

    A couple more tickets here and I might do the same, just that 90 kph is so tedious and boring. In the US I'm a 80 mph guy on highways. Keep to left just because I figure I'm less of a target for cops.
  14. EVENKEEL
    I've never used cruise control other than just to see if it works. Me, I see it as a safety hazard especially in Thailand. In the US I'm all about passing and getting back in left lane. If keeping your foot on accelerator is too much work? Especially if you're hogging the fast lane. Driving 90 kph would be so boring.
  15. EVENKEEL
    I also question that part.
  16. EVENKEEL
    I move over as well, but when I'm passing a line of cars I don't need a truck tailing 1 meter from my bumper. And no I don't do the brake check.
  17. EVENKEEL
    Oh yeah, totally agree. I sometimes wonder if this is some intentional mod or as you say just badly maintained.
  18. EVENKEEL
    Didn't realize they had v6 now, this wasn't a toll road. But, a smaller 2 lane road with crappy inside lane pot holes and slow moving traffic.
  19. EVENKEEL
    Was a time when the Fortuna drivers were the most aggressive. But, now make way for the Ranger owners with the decals on the side and stock oversized wheels. I run 110-120 on long runs. But there's always the Ranger driving crazy fast. Yesterday I saw him coming crazy fast and moved to left as he came up within a few feet of car in front.

    I'm not shocked at seeing the speedo swim suits, actually it's quite entertaining.
  21. EVENKEEL
    Kacha is great, thanks
  22. EVENKEEL
    Staying at Kacha, good choice. High season with 2 beds is pricey everywhere. Stayed hillside still 3500 thb
  23. EVENKEEL
    If MSNBC reports it, must be true.
  24. EVENKEEL
    If you're a regular stoner and you stop, weeks can go by and you might still test pos in a urine test.

    4" (10cm) concrete is fine. 15 cm is way overkill.
