Ride From Udon To Phitsanaluk

[ray23]

Udon to Phitsanaluk.

We did it as a two day ride Sha Sha stopping along the way to enjoy the view truly beautiful country. Great people going and coming. As to Phitsanaluk. Good place to sleep but that’s about it. Without a doubt the most unfriendly people I have encountered in Thailand thus far. Ate at German restaurant and the farrang even went so far as to tell I there was no river in the city. One of the guys rented a 750 here in Udon something new a big bike rental in Udon. The bike was just fine.

Met a Thai guy who spoke great English, turns out he lived in L.A. for years. Owns a gas station 0n 201 after the left from 210, if you down that way stop by and say hello you will enjoy the conversation. His name is Cha (tea)

On the way back we stopped at the Loie Winery, interesting place big operation.

Ok the nuts and bolts Udon to Phitsanaluk.

We rode in about 150 Klms of rain on the way back, but we were taking it easy anyway so just a bit uncomfortable. A lot of the ride is in the mountains so a fun one. Roughly 390 Klms one way, If you plan on overnighting in Phitsanaluk. Trust me no need to be in a hurry.

Sounds like a nice ride Ray, rain and all. I will be in the market for a Jap cruiser 750cc plus in September. After a bit of thought to the matter I have decided to buy one with plates so if you hear of anything let me know. Is there a bike dealer in Udon with this sort of range?

Tahaan might sell me his once he has plates

Yes Andy two big bike dealers in Udon. The rest is very harde to asnwer I bought a 400 dragstar with 12K Kliometers on it, guy is not known for changing speedos.. No guarnetees on that one, with a book 250K. I know four guys who have bought from him thus far beside myself not cheap, but so far he has did excatly what he said he would do. Depending on years miles and condition, you could buy that same bike for a 140 at that shop, but no book.

I've seen anything from Gold Wings down in the shop, depends on what day you look. This one is locted between the train station and the Robinosn Comples, I only know it a Jimmies.

The other is Gigois Big Bike shop, specilaize in Harley's but he has others. In both places you have to ask for a price with a book.

Another good source is Bhat and Sold, hope that helps.
