  1. So I had noticed this at our house a few times, 2 guys cruise past on a CBR150...

    Nothing special I thought.. Saw them most days !!

    Now just did a 3000km trip through 20 provinces and have seen the same thing everywhere.

    What makes it strange is that the 2 guys always wear full face helmets, making them stand out straight away. Generally on a CBR150 older style, nearly always black/blue color... Pillion always carrying a bag over the shoulder...

    My wife reckons debt collectors for local loan sharks, I tend to agree but have no way to ever know unless I take out a loan :)

    Anyone else see these 2 helmeted ghost riders ??

  2. Lets see if this pic comes out up the right way ?

    32 rai just bought on the Chaiyaphum/Petchabun border...

    Not sure of a plan yet but have had an interesting road trip up from Surat over the past few days :)post-85853-0-25639500-1358989598_thumb.j

    No... Do a headstand again :)

  3. Hi,

    Doing a little road trip from Surat up to Chaiyaphum next week.

    Plan to spend 1st night in Pran Buri, then wing it up past Bangkok in the general direction of Pak Chong !!

    Does anyone have any good calls for accommodation in that area, nothing flash but a nice location would be great. I have checked prices and it seems around the 500-800 baht can get a reasonably comfortable place.

    We don't have too much time to sight see but also would like recommendations for good eating stops en route to Chaiyaphum.

    Many thanks,

    Cornish

  4. Not sure how many check points I passed during the festive period but I never saw 1 vehicle pulled over !!

    There was lots of drinking (coffee maybe), reading papers and watching TV but not much else going on...

    Can't say I believe that any provinces had no fatal accidents but lets hope it might be true...

  5. Alcohol is only one problem in Thailand, driving without licenses and recklessly is another. A British tourist was gunned down and killed being caught in a cross fire shootout in a bar between Thais on Koh Samui.

    The British tourist was killed on the beach in Koh Phangnan not in a bar on Samui !

    You are both wrong.

    Stockbroker Stephen Ashton, 22, was killed when a Thai man opened fire during a bar brawl in the early hours of Tuesday. The Brit was shot accidentally while dancing and was pronounced dead at a hospital. In Koh Phangnan

    I was just relaying the info from someone who was stood next to them when it happened, maybe that was another Brit getting shot ?
