scooterboy Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Hi! Planning to go to Lampang by bus (near to Chiang Mai) in a few weeks time, just for a few days. Anyone know of a shop in Lampang that rents out Automatic Scooters (Mio, Kick, Step, Nouvo)? ANY input would be much appreciated - thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boksida Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 If you stay at the Riverside Guesthouse, they can probably help you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooterboy Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Great! The Riverside Hotel - whereabouts in Lampang is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boksida Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Great! The Riverside Hotel - whereabouts in Lampang is that? You can find a map here. (No. 32) If you google "riverside guest house lampang" you will also get more information. It is a central location right on the river. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooterboy Posted September 7, 2007 Author Share Posted September 7, 2007 Got that - Thanks! Ain't no shops renting out Motorbikes/Scooters in the town? Would be nice if there were a few places to choose from and a rough idea of the daily rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most upcountry Thai towns do not have scooter rentals available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Riverside actually rents out bikes themselves but I thought the manager (Am) might be able to steer you in the right direction. He is a keen motocross rider and would know all the bike shops in town. Lampang is a big student town and there scooters on the roads everywhere so a rental should be available. You might even be able to get one with a student attached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooterboy Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 Hrmph! Looks like it's a real no-go in Lampang. I admit that I don't want to go to Lampang and just discover that there AREN'T any rental places. Yeah, I DO know that it can be difficult to rent scooters/motorbikes in some upcountry towns - hence the original question. Have already tried in Lamphun and they got absolutely no rental places anywhere. Seems the only place (with guarantee) is Chiang Mai and driving down from there - unless anybody's got any good suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
