Burapa Pattaya Bike Week 2009

[RusticCharm]

Hey! I didn't know you knew Carabou. 

Btw, the guy second left is a top bloke. Met him on the Bang Saen/Chantaburi ride.

Just returned from Pattaya today and that Bang Na-Trat highway is a f*cking disgrace . Okay, I know bikes aren't supposed to use it but the amount of deep potholes going east is ridiculous and using the frontage road is naturally out of the question as it's a death-trap. Returning to Bangkok is just slightly better.

Ok, sounds like a great event that shouldn't be missed

That's wonderful! 

Should I try losing some weight before February 13th to avoid pissing you off?

Yes the 34 is a mess. I suggest the 3 into Samut Prakarn instead. Good fun.

Great day yest on Japanese bikes!!! LOL.

[dotcom]

I still think this is one of the nicest Customs I've seen. No idea who built it.

[Blues Factory]

Should be a great weekend, I'm looking forward to it.

I'm gonna sponsor again and we will hopefully have The Rock Machine on stage with of course "The Guitar King of Thailand" Lam Morrison!

[RusticCharm]

Lam Morrison kicks serious ass. What time will he be playing?

DONT FORGET THE OPENING PARTY:

This year the Burapa Motorcycle Club will be presenting its 12th Annual Pattaya Bike Week. It will be held on 12th -14th February 2009 at Soi Chaiyapruk Sports Stadium together with an opening party in Soi 4 Jomtien Beach Rd on the 12th February 2009. This event is officially recognized and supported by the City of Pattaya and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT). It promises to be the best Motorcycle & Musical event ever held in South East Asia, attracting in the region of 35-50,000 people to the area over the three days.

Nirvana Resort's in association with Burapa MC are proud to announce that they will be hosting the official opening party on the 12th February 2009 in Jomtien Beach Rd Soi 4. We have held a opening party for the previous two years, however this time it will be in aid of the Camillian Social Centre in Rayong for children living with HIV/Aids and it will be bigger and better than ever. This event will involve some very well known names and faces from the world of Music & Entertainment. We are expecting National & International media coverage (TV, Newspapers, Websites)

Featuring:

· Casino Steel & Honest John Plain

· Blue on Blue Band

· Leo's Blues Band

· Cannonball Band

· Dr. Penguin & The Laughing Wizards – Adult Magic show including Chainsaw Juggler – Hypnotism – Belly Dancers

· Guitar Hero III Competition – Top prizes to be won for rockin' out for the highest score

· Lucky Prize Draw including 2 x nights @ Nirvana Koh Chang worth 20,000baht+

We are determined that this opening party will be the best Rock N Roll and Blues party ever held in Jomtien and most of all it will be completely free and open to all!

Hiya Chris!

How's it going? I think we met a long time ago at the Nonthaburi Bike Week. I'll be riding down from Bangers, but I plan to take the scenic route via Chacheogsao and will avoid the Bang Na-Trad road at all costs! Give me a call if you'd like to ride down together.

Happy Trails!

HiTony,

was great meeting up and throwing some ideas around. Ok - give me a bell as we get closer to the date....

Any news from the other rider?

Cheers!

Chris

[RusticCharm]

I've now been contacted by a few riders about this.

How about if we do take the 3 highway instead of the BangNa-Trad, meeting outside BITEC around 4.30pm.

[dotcom]

Sounds good.

[JimsKnight]

What kind of bikes can you expect? If there's just gonna be a bunch of old fat farangs trying to look tough with their cruisers I won't bother. If there'll be a few sportbikes or some cool customs I'll have a look.

Hey, some of the 'fat' farangs can be cool dudes, don't be too judgmental against the biking brothers man!

I ride a sportsbike and hopefully there will be some more this time to 'even' out the pack a bit . The Choppers don't half make a rumbling blast though

[RusticCharm]

Sounds good.

Okay! A tentative agreement. Anyone else want to join? Outside BITEC (Bang Na), next Fri afternoon 4.30pm, taking no3 highway.

So far, dotcom and myself with 2 other duc's.

Sounds good. I will be coming from Future Park - going to try and push through the monthly owners meeting (lol) run home grab the wheels and meet up.

dotcom / rustic can you PM me with your contact numbers....maybe meet this weekend for a bevie and a chat?

Chris

PS: Still have not made arrangements for hotel yet!

[GizmoBKK]

Indeed, sounds good, whatever "tentative" means though.

Would prefer however to leave a bit earlier to avoid rush hour and driving in the dark (yes, I'm afraid of ghosts...). Let's be honest, if meeting time is scheduled for 4:30, according to Thai habits we will not leave before 5:30, will we?

Glad to join you guys then!

Agreed leaving earlier or "on time" (lol) is ideal....

If everyone is free this sunday - maybe meet for a bevie and a chat to try and sort details and put name to face .... (Just a thought)...

As in 'not many others have agreed to it yet'.

I would also prefer to leave earlier but the earliest I can sneak away from work is about 3.30pm and I'm coming from across the river. Leaving at 4.30 gives us about 2 hours of daylight riding.

And no need to worry about Thai habits as so far, (I'm assuming) all of us are westerners.

But if there's a consensus among most to leave earlier, then I may just take the day off work.

Hi All!

I'll be riding down Friday afternoon from Bangers, but taking the scenic route via Chacheongsao on Highway 304 and hooking up with the Friend Highway Club in Chonburi and on to Pattaya from there.

Any are welcome to join.

Happy Trails!

Tony

[HyperRai]

4.30 from BITEC is very late! It will be difficult to get away from there on a friday. Better if we leave earlier.

Anyone of you want to join me on a ride to Kanchanaburi this weekend?

Drive carefully!
